The Basque Studies Symposium is the first of what the organizers hope will be a series of conferences on Basque. This year’s symposium focuses mainly on linguistics and literature from broad perspectives, featuring papers that will capture the interest of a wide audience. Topics will range from Basque syntax and words, to language policy and rights, to the status of women authors, to contemporary Basque literature, to projecting the identity of a small nation onto a global scene.
Sponsored by the Department of Spanish and Portuguese, the Latin American and Iberian Studies Program, the Comparative Literature Program, the Department of Linguistics, IKER/CNRS - Basque Text and Language Study Center, and the IHC.
