This book aims to offer a new perspective and a new methodology which provide a tool for all researchers in historical sociology of language, but also social history, cultural history, historical sociolinguistics and the fields of research that link language and society, in a diachronic perspective but also in a synchronic perspective. The original point of view from which this methodology arises is Basque studies, but it can almost completely be applied to any international linguistic context, with some little changes. This work is the result of a long methodological reflection that has been developed in different publications. This book is a presentation of the taxonomy and the methodology proposal that our team has created to help sociology of language and sociolinguistics researchers in their work. The taxonomy was created to analyse and classify the sociolinguistic information taking into account the most usual variables that arise in the international bibliography linked to the sociology of language. To create that methodology, we have examined methodological findings since the foundation of sociolinguistics and the tools it has developed, as well as its main theoretical concepts and, bearing our task in mind, we have tried to put together a wide-ranging, flexible and detailed methodology.

‘What is the difference between a language and a dialect?’ is one of the questions most frequently asked of linguists. A notorious and oft-repeated answer is ‘A language is a dialect with an army and navy’, wrongly attributed to Max Weinreich. Linguists have mostly used this witticism as a handy way to end the discussion and dismiss the distinction between language and dialect as a political question irrelevant to their discipline. This book does not attempt to answer this seemingly unsolvable puzzle either but aims to shed light on a simple fact usually overlooked by linguists and laypeople alike: the conceptual pair is not a timeless given but has a history, and a much shorter one than one might assume. It starts not in Greek antiquity, as the origin of the word dialect may suggest, but in the sixteenth century. Taking the Weinreich witticism as its starting point, this book guides the reader on the remarkable journey which the conceptual pair has made. It begins with the prehistory of the language/dialect distinction in antiquity and the Middle Ages. The core of the book surveys the emergence, establishment, and elaboration of the conceptual pair during the early modern period, from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment, when linguistic diversity first became an object of intense study. Finally, the much-contested and ambiguous fate of the language / dialect distinction in modern linguistics is outlined, with special reference to the persistence of earlier ideas and the rise to prominence of the political interpretation crystallized in the Weinreich quip.

Despite the superdiversity of an increasingly multicultural and multilingual world, policy and practice in education continues to deal with issues of inclusion and diversity in language education in rather tangential and peripheral ways. To address critical issues in multicultural and multilingual education, with implications for curriculum, teacher preparation and pedagogical practice, this volume brings together international perspectives on research, policy and pedagogical practice that help the global community gain new insights into ground-breaking work that addresses current questions, challenges and complexities in an education world of superdiversity.

“Amerika, Clint Eastwooden arabera. Westernaren heriotza eta berpizkundea” zinemagile kaliforniarraren ikus-entzunezko testuetara hurbiltzen da bidezidor semiotiko-estrukturalista batetik. Liburu honek zinegilearen obran dauden gaiak, figurak, aurkezpen formalak eta egiturak erakutsiko dizkigu, Clint Eastwood (autore-eredu gisa) nor den ezagutzeko balio dizkigutenak; hauek ditugu ikertu beharreko aztergaiak: 1) landu dituen gaiak, 2) haren idazkera zinematografikoa zizelkatu duten indarrak eta 3) haren ahots zinematografikoaren behaketa. Horretarako, haren western kanonikoen (“Unforgiven”, “The Outlaw Josey Wales”, “Pale Rider” eta “Bronco Billy”) eta gaur egungo garai historikoan girotutako beste lan batzuen (“Mystic River”, “Gran Torino”, “American Sniper”, “The Mule“ eta “Space Cowboys”) arteko alderaketa egin da.

Mendebaldeko Basatiaren mundua mugatzen duen koordenatu kronologikoaz eta geografikoaz harago, genero amerikarrari datxezkion ezaugarriak, berezitasunak, egiturak, gaiak, formak eta arketipoak ere aurkitu daitezke Eastwooden beste lan batzuetan. Gauzak horrela, esan liteke westernak osatzen duela, hein handi  batean, kaliforniarraren filmografiaren bizkarrezurra.

An Nicks Schule sind alle von dem Online-Rollenspiel “Erebos“ fasziniert. Wer es beginnt, kommt nicht mehr davon los. Doch die Spielregeln sind sehr streng: 

Man hat nur eine Chance.

Man darf mit niemandem darüber sprechen.

Man muss immer allein spielen.

Wer gegen die Regeln verstößt oder seine Aufgaben nicht erfüllt,

fliegt raus.

Doch “Erebos“ scheint seine Spieler zu kennen.

Es spricht mit ihnen, beobachtet sie, prüft sie. Immer

stärker nimmt das Spiel Einfluss auf das Geschehen in der

realen Welt. Um voranzukommen, soll Nick sogar einen Menschen

umbringen.

Wie weit wird er gehen, um im Spiel zu bleiben?

Araua eta arrakala. Bien arteko tentsioan ageri zaizkigu ipuin hauetako protagonistak. Emakumezkoak dira ia denak, eta gizonez ari dira, nagusiki. Haiek euren gorputzetan, memoria afektiboan eta egunerokoan utzitako arrastoez. Gizonekiko espektatibez eta dezepzioez: unean bertan egin eta esan ez ziren horiez. Aitak, odolekoak, kulturalak, politikoak, maitaleak, adiskideak ageri dira kontakizunotan.
