The Dynamics of Faroese-Danish Language Contact
There are two official languages on the Faroe Islands, Faroese and Danish; Faroese is the dominant language and Danish the first second language that children acquire. The question addressed in this book is what the exact transmission processes in this asymmetrical bilingual setting are. By combining van Coetsem's notions of Recipient Language Agentivity and Source Language Agentivity with parts of Myers-Scotton's and Jake's frameworks, the author succeeds in explaining the language setting on the islands.
Learning a language in the field: Faroese
Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Scandinavian Languages, University of Göttingen, language: English, abstract: Taking a summer course in Faroese at the University of the Faroe Islands. This Nordic language is spoken by about 50.000 people in the middle of the North Atlantic, where not only the weather is quite exotic. One of the rare possibilities in the world to learn the West Nordic language Faroese is to attend a summer course at the University of the Faroe Islands in Tórshavn.
No Nation is an Island
This study follows the process of nation-building in a tiny nation -- the Faroe Islands, a cluster of 18 rocky islands in the North Atlantic. Originally settled by Vikings and governed by Norway, then by Denmark, and occupied by British forces during World War II, the Faroes gained a measure of home rule in 1948. Since then, Faroese politics have been doctrinated by the struggle for emancipation from the Danish cultural hegemony, through the establishment of cultural and education institutions on the islands, and through the promotion of the Faroese language in place of Danish. As the author shows, the national identity has developed in interaction with an outside world often perceived as hostile and threatening by the islanders, and in this process, certain national symbols have played a key role as boundary markers. Apart from language, the practice of pilot whale hunting has served as an important focus of national identity, and international criticism of whaling in general has only served to intensify the Faroese feeling of unity and opposition to an outside world which does not understand them.
