Tres Escrituras Del Exilio Latinoamericano Del Siglo Xx Y El Conflicto Armado Interno: El Asco, Purgatorio, Y La Muerte Y La Doncella (Camilo Rodríguez, Pp. 85-95), Camilo Andrés Rodríguez Mora

Intersecciones Hispánicas: Revista de Cultura, Literatura y Lingüística

¿Cómo contar el dolor que deja la guerra? Es una pregunta que subyace en incontables obras de arte a lo largo de la historia. Desde tiempos remotos, la expresión literaria cuenta y documen- ta testimonios bélicos. Sin embargo, en la segunda mitad del siglo XX ocurre algo singular: ante el advenimiento de las dictaduras militares en América Latina, una oleada de autores y autoras deciden narrar el dolor resultante del conflicto armado pero sus voces se manifiestan desde situaciones como el exilio, la clandestinidad y la cárcel, espacios de enunciación marcados no sólo por el riesgo sino también por la …

Overregularization Of Irregular Spanish Verbal Morphology: The Cases Of 2sg Preterit And Irregular Past Participles, Elisabeth Baker Martínez

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This dissertation investigates a widely observed phenomenon in child language acquisition: overregularization, which occurs when a child applies a regular linguistic pattern where an irregular form is expected (Bybee, 2015), for example, when a child overregularizes irregular 1sg Spanish sé ‘I know’ as sabo. This dissertation adds to the research on the overregularization of Spanish verbal morphology. The population of focus is Spanish-speaking children ranging from the ages of 1;10 – 12;4 with different language backgrounds (e.g., monolingual Spanish children, U.S. child heritage speakers). The studies included address the development of two Spanish morphological forms by focusing on children’s …

The Second Rebellion Of Satan: The Beautiful Raw Power Of The She-Other. An Interview With Violet Castro (Mario Morera, Pp. 16-19), Mario Morera

Intersecciones Hispánicas: Revista de Cultura, Literatura y Lingüística

The idea of this interview was, in fact, born from the participation of Violet Castro in the anthology Inferno (The Infernal Clock, 2020.) Such text presents a series of short stories representing each of the nine circles of hell in Dante’s Divine Comedy. Her short story At the bottom of my lake of blood, inspired by circle number six, suggests to accompany its reading with the 1990’s song Seasons in the abyss, by the californian trash metal band Slayer. A particular daring trait in this short story is the fact that Satan is portrayed as woman. This interview took place …

Intersecciones Hispánicas: Revista de Cultura, Literatura y Lingüística

“I think in spanish, i write in english” [sic] es un extracto de “graduation speech”, escrito por Tato Laviera en su colección de poemas “La carreta made a U-turn” (Laviera 1979), el cual refleja la vibrante identidad de la diáspora puertorriqueña en los Estados Unidos, capaz de mantener conectados dos lugares con herencias muy diferentes. Este estudio analiza la situación de Puerto Rico, colonia española por más de 400 años y, a partir de 1898, convertida en posesión de los Estados Unidos a raíz de la Guerra Hispanoamericana. Con su invasión, los Estados Unidos prometieron “libertad, prosperidad y ventajas” a …

Intersecciones Hispánicas: Revista de Cultura, Literatura y Lingüística

Having a conversation with Santiago Vaquera-Vásquez, professor and Chair of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of New Mexico, is like sitting down at your family table and sharing a deep conversation about the best tacos in town, experiences about crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, traveling across the globe, and everything in between. This interview was born out of our long-time relationship as students of his and out of personal and shared connections, reflections, and conversations regarding the U.S.-Mexico borderlands, la frontera, and northern Mexico. In this interview, he talks about his upbringing, influences within his creative and …

“So, Like… Tú Sabes”: An Approach To Bilingual Discourse Markers In Puerto Rican Spanish Oral Interaction (Piero Visconte, Pp. 21-45), Piero Visconte

Intersecciones Hispánicas: Revista de Cultura, Literatura y Lingüística

This paper examines discourse markers (DMs) (i.e., pues, entonces, you know, so, I mean, etc.) and their linguistic variations in contexts of English-Spanish interaction in Puerto Rico. This linguistic category represents an aspect of discourse analysis that has captivated great interest in recent years, since its “main function is to connect utterances to each other and to the larger context” (Crible and Blackwell 2020: 24). As shown in several sociolinguistic research articles conducted in the Puerto Rican diaspora of New York City in the last twenty years (Torres 1997, 2002; Lipski 2005), the profound and protracted contact between Spanish and …

La Alternancia De Códigos En El Habla De Los Beisbolistas Hispano- Hablantes: Un Análisis Lingüístico (Sarah Walker, Pp. 68-81), Sarah Walker

Intersecciones Hispánicas: Revista de Cultura, Literatura y Lingüística

El fenómeno de la alternancia de códigos resulta del contacto entre lenguas y, de esta manera, se puede afectar a millones de personas y llevar una variedad casi infinita. Según Myers-Scotton (2017), la alternancia de códigos es la producción de discursos que contienen morfemas de múltiples variedades o lenguas. Puede tomar la forma interoracional o intraoracional, y sigue su propio conjunto de reglas (Myers-Scotton, 2017). El presente trabajo intenta explorar y describir el fenómeno de la alternancia de códigos en relación con el deporte del béisbol desde una perspectiva semántica, sintáctica y sociolingüística. Dado que la literatura ya incluye información …

The Manito Topos Project: Place Naming And Toponymic Silencing In The Sierras Of Northern Nuevo México And Southern Colorado, Len N. Beké

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This dissertation reports on documentary research on vernacular toponymies in Manito communities in Nuevo México and Colorado. These toponymies are erased, obscured and delegitimized in official maps. Within the study area, vernacular antecedents for 49.5% of official names for natural features were documented, along with 280 previously unmapped names. These data were compared to the state-sanctioned toponymy to determine a typology of linguistic mechanisms of toponymic silencing. While a majority of official toponyms are based on Manito oral tradition, only 15.4% of the labels for natural features represent unaltered versions of names in that tradition. This dissertation theorizes the conceptual …

The Development Of Discourse Markers In Narrations Written By Spanish Heritage Language Learners: A Case For Explicit And Implicit Instruction, Mark Cisneros

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This Dissertation attempted to determine the types and number of discourse markers (DMs) used in narrations written by Spanish Heritage Language (SHL) learners and if they benefitted from the following pedagogical intervention (i.e., Explicit Instruction + Input Flood + Textual Enhancement) regarding the use of DMs. It also calculated the syntactic complexity, morphosyntactic accuracy, and fluency of their narrations. For this study, 39 SHL learners served as participants: 19 in an Experimental group and 20 in a Control group. All participants wrote two narrations of two short, silent films: a pre-test narration and an immediate post-test narration. Before completing the …

El Español En El Pueblo Ngäbe. Factores Fonológicos Y Morfológicos, Kafda I. Vergara Esturaín

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This study examines phonological and morphological features involved in the release of plural marking –s in nominal phrases of Spanish as a second language (L2). The linguistic variety belongs to Spanish spoken by members of the Ngäbe pueblo of Panama.

Despite the preference of final /s/ deletion in Panamanian Spanish, morphology seems to activate the production of plural marking –s in certain nominal phrases. Meanwhile, other circumstances stimulating the application of alternative strategies for plural marks are detected.

This study also includes questions about the influence of the first language (L1), particularly by comparing Ngäbere and Spanish nominal phrases. It …

Fresa Style In Mexico: Sociolinguistic Stereotypes And The Variability Of Social Meanings, Rebeca Martinez Gomez

Linguistics ETDs

This dissertation examines the flexibility in the social meanings of sociolinguistic stereotypes and how linguistic and non-linguistic information affect these meanings. The investigation consists of four empirical studies surrounding the case of fresas in Mexico –members of the upper class that are perceived as using a unique linguistic style.

Through a qualitative analysis of 64 webpages and 3 performances of the style, it is shown that fresasare perceived as the counterpart of another construct, nacos,and that their linguistic style is linked to English due to …
