Variation And Change In Peruvian Spanish Word Order: Language Contact And Dialect Contact In Lima, Carol A. Klee, Daniel G. Tight, Rocio Caravedo
International Journal of the Linguistic Association of the Southwest
Previous studies have revealed that the direct object/verb (OV) word order typical of Quechua and Aymara is also prevalent in Andean Spanish. The current study examines the frequency of such structures in Lima, Peru, where massive migration over the past 60 years has brought speakers of Andean indigenous languages and rural Andean Spanish into close contact with speakers of limeño Spanish. Goldvarb analysis of data from 34 participants (seven first-generation migrants, six 1.5-generation migrants, 10 second-generation migrants, and 11 native limeños) indicates that the pragmatic functions that motivated OV order among the participants include those found in noncontact varieties of …

Dialects And Borders: Face-To-Face And Back-To-Back In Latin American Spanish, John M. Lipski
International Journal of the Linguistic Association of the Southwest
This essay explores a relatively underrepresented facet of Latin American Spanish, namely dialect contact along national borders. It is well known that Spanish American dialect zones rarely coincide with national boundaries, but also that prevailing dialectal traits often evoke nationalistic sentiments. The extent to which these tendencies interact is explored through a series of vignettes involving speech communities along the borders between nations whose principal (e.g. capital city) dialect traits differ substantially. Among the proposed factors that influence linguistic behavior in border communities are physical and political ease of border crossing, inter-nation economic imbalances, proximity of major urban areas, trans-border …

Whittier Scholars Program
This project begins with with a definition of Pueblo culture surrounding religion, dwellings, and rituals. This research paper highlights Pueblo historical context, it also refutes the discourse surrounding colonial history that suggests that the story of colonization is one in which colonizers dominate while also using Kathleen DuVal’s The Native Ground as a framework for looking at colonial relations in New Mexico. This research explores Pueblo society, cultural expectations, and Francisco Vazquez de Coronado’s journey.

Cautiverio Y Convivencia En La Edad De Cervantes, Natalio Ohanna
All Books and Monographs by WMU Authors
Cautiverio y convivencia en la edad de Cervantes [Captivity and Coexistence in the Age of Cervantes] explores Spanish narratives of coexistence in Muslim and Native American lands, through the lens of captivity in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Far from engaging with the violence or trauma of confinement, the author studies the cognitive experience that results from abrupt immersion in a foreign culture, which leads to a revision of homogeneous and stereotypical perceptions of cultural, religious and ethnic differences, and ultimately undermines the perception of one’s own society as a stable world. In the Early Modern use of captivity narratives …

Esther Tusquets' El Mismo Mar De Todos Los Veranos And "Carta A La Madre": The Healing Transformation Of The Mother-Daughter Relationship, Julie Marie Petersen
All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects
The aim of this thesis is to explore how Esther Tusquets' "Carta a la madre" can be viewed as an evolution of Elia's emotional struggles in her search for forgiveness and closure with her mother in El mismo mar de todos los veranos, and explain why Tusquets would chose to reintroduce these characters (or slight variations of them) to readers close to twenty years later. There are differences that exist between the works and some characters are altered, but my analysis illustrates that "Carta a la madre" is not a continuation of Elia's story, but rather an evolution of the …

Irónicamente, fue en el coloquio estructuralista “Los lenguajes críticos y las ciencias del hombre” que tuvo lugar en la Universidad de Johns Hopkins en 1966, donde Jacques Derrida inició a los Estados Unidos por primera vez en el posestructuralismo. Al final de su ponencia “La estructura, el signo y el juego en el discurso de las ciencias humanas”, la cual ya exigía en el posestructuralismo como una rectificación de las teorías estructuralistas, esbozó su teoría de desconstrucción como la gestación de un monstruo a punto de saltar al mundo desprevenido.
Poetics Of Enchantment: Language, Sacramentality, And Meaning In Twentieth-Century Argentine Poetry,

Poetics Of Enchantment: Language, Sacramentality, And Meaning In Twentieth-Century Argentine Poetry, Adam Gregory Glover
Theses and Dissertations--Hispanic Studies
This dissertation explores the relationship between language, sacramentality, and enchantment in three twentieth-century Argentine poets: Francisco Luis Bernárdez (1900-1976), Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986), and Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-1972). It seeks to ask and answer two fundamental questions. First, to what extent might it be possible to understand the conception of poetic language characteristic of modern poetry as an articulation, however muffled and secularized, of a sacramental apprehension of language and world? Second, how might such a conception be related to what Max Weber famously called “the disenchantment of the world”? The dissertation begins with a broad overview of the development of …

This dissertation examines the role of women prisoners during the Spanish Civil war (1936-1939) and the Francoist regime (1939-1975) as represented in different literary genres such as the testimonio (testimonial narrative), autobiography and the fiction novel. In the first chapter, I analyze the concept of womanhood created by Francisco Franco 's regime through the person of Pilar Primo de Rivera. In the second chapter I study three texts written right after the dictatorship: Desde la noche y la niebla by Juana Doña, Las cárceles de Soledad Real compiled by Consuelo García and En el infierno: ser mujer en las cárceles …

The Life Of Spanish Noblewomen In The Secular World And Their One Alternative: The Role Of The Convent In María De Zayas' Desengaños Amorosos, Maria Middleton
All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects
This thesis examines the literary works of María de Zayas y Sotomayor called the Desengaños amorosos (1647) and the message these works suggest about life choices for women in sixteenth and seventeenth century Spain. In these novellas, María de Zayas makes a connection to the actual life of noblewomen both in the convent and outside of it. Her writing suggests through virtual and narrated experience that life in the convent allows for greater self actualization than life as a married woman. For the female characters in Desengaños amorosos, María de Zayas often utilized the convent as the superior alternative to …
