Meeting Description: 

The talks of this workshop, based on original materials, aim to describe the
current phonetic, phonological and morphological functioning of Corsican and
Sardinian languages, their typological classification and their genesis. They
will highlight the various types of systems present, as well as their
distribution in the insular and Romance space, through a detailed
re-examination of facts such as consonantal fortition and lenition,
gemination, the different vowel systems, nasality, etc. These analyses will
show that a Corsican dichotomy (Italian-Tuscan in the north and Sardinian in
the south) and a Sardinian dichotomy (Sardinian in the south and Corsican in
the north) are insufficient; in addition to specific Corsican and Sardinian
features, several features place Sardinia and Corsica in a Romance typological
space linked at the same time to Tuscany and to the Italian dialects (Pisan,
Genoese and to the dialects of the Southern Italy), as well as to Western
Romania (Ibero-Romance, Gallo-Romance, including Occitan). This structuring
does not necessarily result from the contact between these languages but is
registered for Sardinia and Corsica in the change of the Latin to the Romance
languages. The precise identification of these linguistic features makes of
the two islands a unique structured typological set in the heart of Romania.
