On Friday 31st January at 8 p.m., the book launching of Els parlars valencians (Valencian Varieties) by Vicent Beltran Calvo and Carles Segura-Llopes will take place at the Municipal Library of Teulada. The act will have the participation of both authors and of Joan Ivars Cervera, Professor of Catalan Philology.

Els parlars valencians describes, from a worthwhile field work, the linguistic richness that presents the Catalan language to the Valencian Country. The book is organised in four parts: the first shows an overview of the characteristics of the speeches described; whereas the second section classifies and describes each of the varieties studied. The third part is organised according to the traditional structure of dialectal monographs, which includes phonetics, morphosyntax and lexicon. The book ends with the Linguistic Atlas of the Valencian Languages, with 56 full coloured maps where the linguistic variations are represented geographically. The works that have given origin to this book have been awarded with the IEC Prize of Lexicography and Onomastics Joan Coromines 2017.
