Abstract:

It was traditionally assumed that having a single official language was a 
necessary condition for the wellbeing of the state, particularly in France and 
Britain. This assumption is now questioned, and the regional languages are 
making, in some cases, an impressive comeback. It is the story of their 
decline, their survival and, more recently their efforts to re-establish 
themselves as effective tools of normal communication which is tackled in 
this book. Each language is analyzed in terms of its development from the 
earliest times, through its period of decline to present-day efforts at 
regeneration.
