- PublicationOpen AccessLas inversiones del orden de palabras: antecedentes metodológicos de los estudios sobre la estructura informacional(2017-02-16) Hassler, GerdaCurrent research on information structure resonates with many echoes of seventeenth century word order theories, though these allusions tend to be unconscious. How should we historiographers evaluate such similarities beyond merely determining the continuities? And can we perhaps derive conclusions about this complex subject relevant to today's discussion from the opposing positions and intense discourse of the eighteenth century?

- PublicationOpen AccessTras las huellas de Mauricio Swadesh: en búsqueda de una lingüística "total"(2017-02-16) Swiggers, PierreThe notion of "antecedents" in the historiography of linguistics calls for a number of observations, concerning, e.g., the relevance and the justification of any reference to 'precursors'. An even more interesting question concerns the motivation underlying the identification of 'antecedents'. Basically, the reference to antecedents implies some kind of 'association', a type of 'solidarity' with ideas, techniques, projects formulated in the past. While this 'association' or 'solidarity' may seem a purely subjective affair, upon close inspection one detects an 'objective foundation', in the form of cognitive elements that appear in techniques, methods or models identified as methodological, or epistemological, antecedents. These objective cognitive elements gain in significance when they are tied up with views on the general nature of language, seen in its broader social and cultural context. An 'inspiring antecedent' in this respect is Morris (Mauricio) Swadesh, a student of Edward Sapir, who became one of the leading linguists in the second quarter of the 20th century. Although he is probably better (or best) known for his "technical", "theoretical", and "methodological" contributions and innovations -the phonemic principle; the morphophoneme as a solution for phonological alternations; glottochronology or lexicostatistics-, his most inspiring ideas can be found in two of his more general works (written in Spanish) on linguistics, La nueva filología and El lenguaje y la vida humana.
- PublicationOpen AccessConversar para ubicar y orientar: pragmática y uso de Cláusulas Relativas en niños(2017-02-16) Silva, María LuisaThis research analyzes the characteristics of discursive actions used by children (5 and 7 years-old) in conversations with an adult when they need to locate and guide to their conversational partner who does not know the physical space referred. The analysis focused on the pragmatic conditions of the task and the Relative Clauses (Rcs.) usage. The analysis allowed to recognize that, in these interactional dynamics, the plotting and use of spatial language are co-dependent phenomena, that there is interdependence between the activity of plotting and Rcs. usages and that there is a strong relationship between the frequency of Rcs. usages with the processes by which children configure and model the cognitive representations of the spaces described.
- PublicationOpen AccessEl posesivo tónico precedido de artículo en la sierra de Francia (sur de Salamanca) y zonas próximas: el presunto islote hurdano.(2017-02-16) Francisco Sánchez, GonzaloThe lexical expression of possession in medieval Castilian romance has long been marked by the coexistence of the structure article + possessive, expressing semantic values, and the structure possessive without article, not expressing any affect. The structure article + possessive started gradually disappearing starting in the 15th century and has now totally disappeared from the written Castilian usage; however, this structure (with usually a possessive tonic) is still quite often used in the vernacular language of some rural districts, such as the Sierra de Francia (south of Salamanca). This article aims to describe, from two different corpora, the use and geographical reach of the medieval sequence and its variant tonic possessive + noun in the south of Salamanca and in northern Cáceres.
