Summary

The objective of the work titled "Euskal Festak Zestoan" is the analysis of Basque Festivities that took place in September of 1898 in Zestoa. Together ; with the floral games created by Antoine d´Abbadie, the main promoters of these ; Basque Festivities were the so-called Itz-jostaldien Batzarrea from Donostia, that ; were entrusted with the literary contests, and the Diputation of Gipuzkoa, that ; were entrusted with the cattle fair. To appreciate the importance of this type of ; Basque Festivities one has take into account the impact that the loss of the ; statutes (Fueros) had in the Basque provinces and the response or renaissance ; that took place in these territories as a result thereof.
