The Basques In Idaho, John Patrick "Pat" Bieter
The Basques In Idaho, John Patrick "Pat" Bieter
BOGA: Basque Studies Consortium Journal
This is the 45th anniversary of the publication of Dr. Pat Bieter’s booklet by the Idaho State Historical Society in 1973. It served as one of the earliest English language introductions to the Basques in general, and specifically the Basques of Idaho relating the story of the Basque homeland and why Basques immigrated to America and settled in Idaho. This re-publication with permission returns us to the pioneering work of this author. In addition to his writing on the Basques, Bieter founded Boise State's first studies abroad program which later became part of the University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC).
Ethnic Identity Formation Among Basque-American Adolescents, Catherine M. Petrissans
Ethnic Identity Formation Among Basque-American Adolescents, Catherine M. Petrissans
BOGA: Basque Studies Consortium Journal
This article focuses on the ethnic identity formation among one hundred Basque-American youth between the ages of nine and fifteen who were interviewed at the beginning and end of a two week long Udaleku held in Bakersfield California in 2013. This project explores four key questions related to the internal thought processes used by camp attendees to account for or try to make sense of their ethnicity. First, were camp attendees confident or confused about their ethnicity? Second, have participants attempted to “explore” their ethnicity and, if so how? Third, what does “being Basque” mean to camp participants and is …

Reconciling The Places Where We Live With The Spaces We Inhabit: Construction Of A Communicative Space For Basque Based On A Local Media Network, Eneko Bidegain, Aitor Zuberogoitia, Txema Egaña
BOGA: Basque Studies Consortium Journal
The aim of this research is to give a detailed description of local media working in Basque language, hence, providing a backdrop for other minority language local media. Our approach is to offer data based on a questionnaire distributed among 65 local media with a response rate of 84%, ten in-depth interviews and a focus group. The data revealed a total publication of 200.000 copies with potential for a 70 page newspaper, 400.000 readers, almost 300 employees and more than 1.000 collaborating individuals. However, in spite of seeking to collaborate within a common framework, diversity and economic insecurity limit the …
Seventeenth-Century Basque Witchtrials: The Interaction Of Socio-Religious Norms Within The Contact Zone Of The Accused And The Inquisitor, Michelle Gizinski Earwicker
Seventeenth-Century Basque Witchtrials: The Interaction Of Socio-Religious Norms Within The Contact Zone Of The Accused And The Inquisitor, Michelle Gizinski Earwicker
Boise State University Theses and Dissertations
During the early seventeenth century, the Catholic Church sought to eradicate any belief systems that did not align with Catholic theology. In the Basque regions of Spain and France, these efforts produced a series of witch hunts between 1608 – 1614, in which the Church labeled as diabolical and nefarious the socio-religious belief systems the Basque people tried to incorporate into their practice of Catholicism. This thesis uses the confessions of accused Basque witches gathered during investigations and trials to explore Basques’ mention of pre-Christian symbols and beliefs, which I argue were often misunderstood by the Inquisitors as evidence of …
Escritoras Vascas Y Feminismo: La Ubicua Violencia Sexual Contra La Mujer En Los Relatos De Eider Rodríguez, Iker González-Allende
Escritoras Vascas Y Feminismo: La Ubicua Violencia Sexual Contra La Mujer En Los Relatos De Eider Rodríguez, Iker González-Allende
Spanish Language and Literature Papers
Este artículo analiza la representación de la violencia sexual masculina en cuatro relatos de la escritora vasca Eider Rodríguez: “Ojos de abeja”, “Carne”, “Calle de la Providencia” y “Puntos suspensivos”, incluidos en sus libros Y poco después, ahora (2007) y Carne (2008), versiones traducidas de sus originales en euskara. Estas narraciones revelan la existencia ubicua de una cultura de la violación en la sociedad contemporánea, en la que se incentiva la agresividad sexual en los hombres y se justifican sus ataques sexuales contra las mujeres. El artículo investiga tres modalidades de violencia sexual: la violación y el acoso sexual del …
