Abstract

Poetry in the Catalan language in the País Valencià has been defined in thelatest years by the consolidation of some authors and the continuous appearance of new voices of different stylistic and aesthetical orientations. In this essay a panorama of these facts appears, framed in the social situation of the language and the editorial and cultural activities of the period.

Abstract

An immersion programme is an integrating educational curriculum, which aims to increase and not to reduce knowledge, and on no account tries to replace the family language of the student. Provided the teachers follow suitable pedagogic guidelines, they will encourage the students' capacity for linguistic reflection and, therefore, will foster the learning of other languages, making it easier for students to become multilingual and multicultural Such programme is included in our legislative codes which, in addition to giving legal support, also give methodological strategies that may guide teachers in its application. However, we may not forget that any school choice implying a change of language has a clear sociopolitical dimension, which is clearly the origin of the attitudes families and students possess on arrival at school.

1993 was the centenary celebration of the death of writer, journalist and politician Carmel Navarro Llombart, more commonly known by his pseudonym Constantí Llombart. The speech by Vicent Ventura at the celebration organized by the University of Valencia takes a look at the highlights in the life of Llombart and his statements in favor of recuperating Catalan language and culture, in opposition to the groups that would ultimately dominate during the Renaixença in the Valencian Country.

Abstract

La toponímia no és només la manera de denominar un lloc, sinó que és la representació d’aquest a través dels valors, creences, actituds, etc. Per tant, la morfologia que presente un topònim concret vindrà determinada per la llengua que el vehicule i per altres factors culturals. En aquest treball, doncs, s’analitzen els resultats d’aquesta representació en Internet, mitjançant la cerca de topònims referits al territori valencià, que presenten un major interés des del punt de vista ideològic, en diversos dominis i en les dues llengües que hi són oficials. L’objectiu d’aquesta cerca és estudiar a través de la toponímia i la paratoponímia no només com ens veiem nosaltres mateixos, sinó com ens veuen els altres, és a dir l’existència de la nostra identitat com a tal, amb quina morfologia, de quina llengua, on s’hi troben i, per tant, amb quina ideologia. Per a la realització d’aquest estudi s’ha fet servir un motor de cerca àmpliament conegut, determinant-ne les limitacions i establint-ne el nivell de fiabilitat, amb l’ús comparatiu i puntual d’un altre motor de cerca i amb l’anàlisi concreta de les pàgines web obtingudes.
