Hiru itsasontzi abiatu dira, 1615. urteko udaberrian, Donostiatik Islandiara, baleak arrantzatzeko asmoz. Aurreko urteotan bezala, hango Ipar Mendebaldeko Fiordoetako magistratu Ari Magnussonekin sinatutako hitzarmen bat dute horretarako baimen. Alabaina, Danimarkako erregeak moztu egin nahi du kanpoko balezaleen jarduna, bere erresumaren monopolioa zaintze aldera, eta guztiz debekatu du edozein arrantza mota uhartean. Bizkaitarren gaineko heriotza zigorra ere ezarri du erregeak. Horrek bi pareten artean jarri du Ari Magnusson. Kontratu bat du euskaldunekin, baina erregearen agindua bestaldean. Arrantza denboraldia pasatzen utziko du magistratuak, nahiz eta gertutik jarraitu euskaldunen jarduna.
This book looks at the fundamental components of national identity as understood by ordinary nation members, and the way in which it is mobilised by political elites. Drawing on an original case comparison between Wales and the Basque Country, the author suggests there are many commonalities between these two nations, particularly around the fundamentals of their national identities. However, differences occur in terms of degree of intensity of feeling and around the politicisation of identity, with more entrenched and hostile political positioning in the Basque Country than Wales. Through a multi-level comparison, the book generates insights into national identity as a theoretical concept and in a ‘stateless nation’ context. It argues for national identity's intangible, yet polemical, nature, looking at the primordialist way it is understood, its permanence and importance, coupled with its lack of everyday salience and consequent obligations.
