The comitative represents a particular case in the Romance languages of the Iberian Peninsula. Except for Catalan, the rest of varieties possess a redundant form inherited from the evolution of the Latin postposition plus the preposition con (‘with’). However, some authors point out a tendency that favours subject forms or even stressed object forms in persons in which the norm prohibits them. With the aim of finding the vernacular responses to this respect, this paper attempts to account for all the possibilities in the comitative in the Romance languages of the Iberian Peninsula as well as the factors upon which the selection of either strategy depends. Keywords: Comitative, Ibero-Romance, geolinguistics, corpus, dialectology.

Recent studies on complex social organisations have centred their attention on the dynamics of the social and economic internal development of those societies, while others have placedgreater emphasis on their peculiar cultural and historical contexts. Yet other studies have tried to bring together all possible variables, usig both functional and contextual arguments, in an attempt to turn the archaelogical evidence into a comprehensible whole. The possible vauses for the rise and collapse of the state in certain areas and the occurrence of powerful ruling elites have also become interesting and challenging questions in modern archaeological research. In the Iberian Peninsula, Tartessos seems to have been a filcral area in the general development of the whole South especially that of the South-west. This can be detected both in its own evolutionary process and by the establishment of strong contacts and interaction with different peoples. The increasing demands of its trade networks and the establishment of complex ties of dedpendence between its core and peripherical areas playes a significant role in this development. The dynamics of these processes will be discussed here, and an explanatory model suggested.

Este texto fala da dança de paus portuguesa conhecida como dança dos paulitos. A análise baseia-se em pesquisas de campo levadas a cabo pela autora em Paris e Portugal entre 2003 e 2007. Aqui, o foco está na dança dos paulitos do concelho de Miranda do Douro situado no Nordeste de Portugal, os chamados Pauliteiros de Miranda. Discute-se como a dança evoluiu de revivificação a processos de patrimonialização e mostra-se como a dança contribuiu para a promoção duma comunidade local e como se tornou num símbolo regional e nacional. É distinguido entre o tipo de revivificação orientado para o objecto e o tipo de revivificação orientado para o processo em que os contextos performativos rituais e folclorísticos da dança são examinados.

The silk industry was historically the most important industrial sector from Trás-os-Montes, with no competition until the 19th century. For centuries, it was the economic activity most open to the outside and the first to yield to the new capitalist mentality.  It was, undoubtedly, the productive activity that contributed most to the national and international acknowledgment of the region and its identity. The explanation for the localization of this industry in northeastern Trás-os-Montes lies in its multi-secular tradition, nourished by silkworm creation, that is, by the existence of raw materials in that region, a virtuous cycle that is difficult to perceive. In this paper, which serves as a brief history of the silk industry in Trás-os-Montes during the Ancient Regime, we study the available sources that, although scarce, allow us to verify the irregular evolution of this industry, and the factors leading to its periods of depression and prosperity. Keywords: Trás-os-Montes, Bragança, Chacim, silk industry, Arnauds, Piedmont.

The aim of this article is to present a sociolinguistic appraisal of Extremadura varieties among regional dialects of Spanish. Spanish of Extremadura has historically received influences from different linguistic varieties: Castilian, Portuguese, Old Leonese, and, more recently, Andalusian dialects. Extremadura is a territory where the prestigious Castilian fights with popular uses, exhibiting an innovative phonetics, combined with some old phonetic features, especially in the north, and archaisms in the lexical level. It is interesting to note the existence of two linguistic islands in the province of Cáceres: Malpartida de Plasencia and Serradilla.

This article tackles the discourses of national identification produced by the inhabitants of a village close to the border between Portugal and Spain on the Guadiana river, in order to shed light on the persistence of the Castilians/Spaniards as the main collective partner, the “significant other” in the construction and reproduction, through difference, of Portuguese identity. Based on ethnographic materials collected approximately in the last two decades, it shows that, in the context under study, the representation of the personality of the Portuguese people emerges out of a structure of contrasts in relation to the representation of the Spaniards’ personality. Similarly, the contrast to the Castilians/Spaniards is the main leitmotif from which the Portuguese identity has been built over time. Keywords: national character; stereotypes; national identity; Iberian border.

Este artigo aborda os discursos de identificação nacional produzidos pelos habitantes de uma aldeia próxima da fronteira luso-espanhola no rio Guadiana, a fim de ilustrar a persistência dos castelhanos/espanhóis enquanto parceiro coletivo preferencial, o “outro significante” na construção e reprodução, pela diferença, da identidade portuguesa. Com base em materiais etnográficos recolhidos sensivelmente nas últimas duas décadas, o artigo mostra que, no contexto em estudo, a representação da personalidade dos portugueses emerge por oposição à representação da personalidade dos espanhóis. De igual modo, o contraste com os castelhanos/espanhóis é o principal leitmotiv a partir do qual se tem construído e reproduzido a identidade portuguesa ao longo dos tempos. Palavras-chave: caráter nacional; estereótipos; identidade nacional; fronteira ibérica.

The international project Tesouro do léxico patrimonial galego e portugués (Thesaurus of the Galician and Portuguese heritage lexicon) aims to be a cross-dialectal lexical portal bringing together lexicographical material from Brazil, Galicia and Portugal in a single computer tool. This dialect portal will give direct access via Internet, free of charge, to a large body of lexicographical data much of which has until now remained unpublished and hard for researchers obtain. The lexical information in the Tesouro is fully lemmatized, semantically classified and geographically referenced, making it possible to obtain usefully grouped search results and generating a map representation corresponding to each data set. Besides its obvious value to dialect researchers and lexicographers, the Tesouro will also provide useful material for the study of names, historical linguistics, etymology, morphology and so on. This tool might also be exploited in ethnographical and historical research since it makes available to the scientific community a large amount of information about the inherited traditions, both material and immaterial, of all three countries, much of which is endangered on account of recent changes in traditional ways of life. Keywords: lexicography; Galician; Portuguese; lexical dialectology; linguistic geography.

This article examines the impact associated with the making of heritage and tourism at a destination. Special attention is paid to the residents’ perceptions of the impact. The examination is focused on the rural village of Sortelha, in Portugal, where, in recent decades, a state-led programme was implemented in order to renovate the historic buildings and built fabric and to generate benefits for the local community. Based on ethnographic materials collected in 2003, 2009 and 2013, the study demonstrates that the making of heritage may give rise to two opposing impacts simultaneously – increased social cohesion and place pride, on the one hand, and envy and competition (and, hence, social atomisation), on the other hand – and that residents are entirely cognisant of the tension between the two. The study has the potential to contribute to both the theoretical and the applied literature on heritage making.
