Amparo Cabanes Pecourt (born 1938) is a Spanish historian,professor of paleography,writer,and politician. From 1981 to 1983 she was a Councilor of the Valencian Community. In her writings she has defended the position that Valencian is not Catalan. [1]
Amparo Cabanes Pecourt was born in the fishing district of Valencia. She is a disciple of the medieval historian and philologist Antonio Ubieto Arteta .
She took Baccalaureate and Magisterium studies in Valencia. She obtained the degrees of Philosophy and Letters con premio extraordinario (1962) and Doctor in History (1968),under the direction of Ubieto Arteta at the Literary University of Valencia. She also took Social Graduate studies at the Social School of Valencia (1959–1962). From 1963 to 1983 she taught as a Full Professor at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Valencia,and taught two courses (1979–1982) at that university's School of Nursing.
By means of a national competition she obtained the Chair of Paleography and Diplomacy with a posting at the University of Murcia's Faculty of Philosophy and Letters (1982),passing in September 1983,through a transfer competition,to the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Zaragoza,where she remained until her retirement in 2008. [2]
She is a member of the Real Acadèmia de Cultura Valenciana , [2] and from 2009 to 2016 she was director of its History Section. [3]
She is the author of more than 100 publications,most of them dedicated to issues related to Valencian history,culture,and language.
In 1976,invited by Manuel Sanchis i Guarner to give a lecture on the repopulation of the Kingdom of Valencia based on the apportionment of James I,Cabanes Pecourt threw away the preexisting theories and defended the thesis that more settlers were Aragonese than Catalan,and therefore those who helped him conquer the lands did not speak Catalan. [1]
She became involved in politics at the hand of Fernando Abril Martorell after agreeing in some Valencian meetings to give a solution to the problem of the Valencian language. [4]
From September 1981 to December 1982,she was Councilor of Education in the Council of the Valencian Community presided over by Enrique Monsonís,at the proposal of the UCD,although she accepted the position as an independent. Later,until June 1983,she was a councilor without portfolio in the government chaired by socialist Joan Lerma. [5]
She was part of the electoral lists,as an independent,of the coalition between the Valencian Union and People's Alliance in the 1983 regional elections,although she was not elected as a deputy. [6]
Valencian or Valencian language is the official,historical and traditional name used in the Valencian Community (Spain),and unofficially in the El Carche comarca in Murcia (Spain),to refer to the Romance language also known as Catalan. The Valencian Community's 1982 Statute of Autonomy and the Spanish Constitution officially recognise Valencian as the regional language.
The Catalan Countries refers to those territories where the Catalan language is spoken. They include the Spanish regions of Catalonia,the Balearic Islands,Valencia,and parts of Aragon and Murcia (Carche),as well as the Principality of Andorra,the department of Pyrénées-Orientales in France,and the city of Alghero in Sardinia (Italy). In the context of Catalan nationalism,the term is sometimes used in a more restricted way to refer to just Catalonia,Valencia and the Balearic Islands. The Catalan Countries do not correspond to any present or past political or administrative unit,though most of the area belonged to the Crown of Aragon in the Middle Ages. Parts of Valencia (Spanish) and Catalonia (Occitan) are not Catalan-speaking.
The names of the Valencian Community are diverse,even though Comunitat Valenciana is the only denomination with official status in its Statute of Autonomy. Called Comunidad Valenciana in Spanish. Nonetheless,this legal document includes in its Preamble other legal denominations that portray the history and nature of the territory:Regne de València and País Valencià.
Bernard Weish or Bernard Weiss was a fictional linguist invented by unknown(s) in order to back the theories that differentiate between Valencian and the Catalan language,but it might be also possible the reversed possibility:it was created by an opposer of the Language secessionism to ridicule it and the Blaverists did not realize it.
