Abstract

This article is a summary of a doctoral thesis on the linguistic activism of the Lliga Regionalista, the main political party in Catalonia in the first quarter of the 20th century. Apart from explaining the structure of the thesis and the state of the arts, the article analyzes the main features of what constituted the first global attempt of language planning in modern Catalonia. Thus, it shows how the regionalists promoted the use of the Catalan language in official areas such as the civil service, the education system or the judicial system. It also describes the opposition of the castilianist groups to the official use of Catalan, and reports some of the most relevant linguistic polemics of the period. Finally, it narrates the dismantling of the regionalist linguistic policy by the Primo de Rivera dictatorship.
