El P. Larramendi murió en Loyola en 1766. En 1767 los jesuitas fueron expulsados de España por Carlos III. Con esta ocasión se hizo un listado notarial de todos los libros existentes en el Colegio Real de Loyola y también de los libros propios de la habitación del P. Larramendi. Este volumen recoge e inventaria todos los volúmenes que actualmente están en la Biblioteca del Santuario de Loyola y que en 1767 aparecen en el listado de los libros personales del P. Larramendi. La presente obra ofrece conforme a las normas ISBD los libros que este jesuita, gran artífice de la lengua vasca con su gramática y diccionario trilingüe, tuvo al alcance de la mano y hoy están disponibles en Loyola (Azpeitia).
This book provides a genealogy of radical Basque nationalism and the means by which this complex, often violent, political movement has reinforced Basque identity. Radical nationalists are mobilized by a shared frame of reference where ethnicity and violence are intertwined in a nostalgic recreation of a golden age and a quasi-religious imperative to restore that distant past. Muro critically examines the origins of the ethno-nationalist conflict and provides a comprehensive examination of Euskadi Ta Askatusana’s (ETA) violent campaign. The book analyzes the interplay of ethnicity and violence and stresses the role of inherited myths, memories, and cultural symbols to explain the ability of radical Basque nationalism to endure.
Fascinated with the heritage of ancient Greece, early modern intellectuals cultivated a deep interest in its language, the primary gateway to this long-lost culture, rehabilitated during the Renaissance. Inspired by the humanist battle cry “To the sources!” scholars took a detailed look at the Greek source texts in the original language and its different dialects. In so doing, they saw themselves confronted with major linguistic questions: Is there any order in this immense diversity? Can the Ancient Greek dialects be classified into larger groups? Is there a hierarchy among the dialects? Which dialect is the oldest? Where should problematic varieties such as Homeric and Biblical Greek be placed? How are the differences between the Greek dialects to be described, charted, and explained? What is the connection between the diversity of the Greek tongue and the Greek homeland? And, last but not least, are Greek dialects similar to the dialects of the vernacular tongues? Why (not)? This book discusses and analyzes the often surprising and sometimes contradictory early modern answers to these questions.
