Egiazko Misterioa Euskararen: La Politique Linguistique, les Methodes Educatives, et la Revitalisation de la Langue Basque en France et en Espagne du Vingtieme Siecle Jusquau PresentCooper-Finger, Rose 01 January 2014 (has links)
The Basque people and their language have been politically oppressed for centuries. I examine the history of the Basque language and how its oppression and revitalization have been shaped by the language policies of France and Spain, the two countries spanned by the Basque country. I focus my research and predictions on the French Basque Country, which is currently subject to a more oppressive language policy than Spanish Basque Country. The number of Basque-speaking bilinguals in the French Basque Country is decreasing and attitudes regarding instruction of the language have become more apathetic. I explore governmental, community, and combined efforts to preserve and encourage use of the language and draw several conclusions about viable future revitalization efforts.
