The main goal of this paper is the analysis of the language ideologies that Arturo Pérez Reverte supports in the opinion pieces that he publishes weekly in XL Semanal. From his position of discursive privilege, the writer and academician endorses a panhispanic perspective that is ambiguously linked to Spanish Nationalism. From this point of view, Spanish is at the same time a meeting point for a large group of people in a postnational context and a dominant lengua común among the languages spoken in Spain. Regarding linguistic change, Pérez Reverte supports with violence the authority of the Real Academia Española and denies legitimacy to other possibilities of change, which are presented as linked with ephemeral political interests.

The comedy Gustos y disgustos son no más que imaginación was written by Pedro Calderón de la Barca in the Thirties and it was performed at court in 1680 on the occasion of the wedding of king Charles II with the French Marie Louise d'Orléans, Louis XIV's niece, just a year before the death of the author. This paper explores, from a diachronic perspective, the different meanings and aims conveyed by the various vital stages of this Calderonian comedy -- writing, performance and publication -- with a specific focus on its 1680 performance at court.

The Great Recession changed the political landscape of the European democracies with the electoral success of populist protest parties in different countries. In this article, we wonder if there are features that characterized these political parties about the issues of gender equality and women's rights. Populism and feminization of politics are recurring topics in the scholars' debate, but the relationships between these two phenomena are still little studied. Seeing as the issue is linked to context, and not only to the political parties' differences, we will focus on three illustrative cases, in different European nations - Spain, Finland, Poland - analysing scientific literature and documents. The hypothesis is that the issues of gender can be an additional contentious line useful for defining identity and differences in the heterogeneous set of populist parties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
