Since its origins, the notion of Diglossia has been applied, among others, to the Arabic language. Marçais (1930) and Ferguson (1959) are the foundational works on this topic. In order to classify Arabic varieties, they proposed a dichotomous framework based on functions and prestige in which Classical Arabic and the vernacular varieties represent two opposite poles. From an ideological perspective, Arabic vernaculars held a subordinated position to Classical Arabic, considered the ideal language. However, during the last 50 years, research has shown the inappropriateness of the concept, claiming a rupture of that paradigm and proposing different solutions more adjusted to the Arab-speaking reality. This paper has a twofold purpose. On the one hand, I review the literature on the concept of diglossia and on other linguistic ideologies that can be applied to the Arabic language. On the other hand, and based on the linguistic situation in Morocco, I show how the competition between prestigious – different from Classical Arabic – and stigmatized varieties favor variation and linguistic change.

The aim of this paper is to explore the consequences of incorporating competition mechanisms into the explanation of some phenomena. The underlying question ultimately concerns the place of paradigmatic relations in the organization of linguistic systems: their status, their role in interpretation and grammar, and their explanatory power. The advantages of alternative-based inferential approaches over code-based models are highlighted as various interpretive phenomena are discussed. From a wider perspective, competition is then examined as a possible shaper of other grammatical domains. The challenges that these explanations must face are brought to the forefront, and so are the new paths open by recent research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article reports that the constitutional period inaugurated in Spain after the pronouncement of Rafael del Riego on January 1, 1820 and closed by the French invasion of April 1823 and the repeal of the 1812 Constitution by Fernando VII in October is a moment key in the history of Spain. Topics include examines the historiographical relevance of the Constitutional Triennium is irremediably related to the applicability of the paradigm to the history of contemporary Spain.

The article discusses the issue of law in Hannah Arendt based on its connection with the theme of the common. The idea is to guide us through the paradigmatic dimension of the refugee (outlaw) and thus to mediate the discussion about the common through Arendt's understanding of the human condition present seminally in the text "We refugees" (1943), in the section "The decline of the nation-state and the end of the rights of man" in Origins of Totalitarianism (1951), and explicitly thematized in the book The Human Condition (1958). In choosing this path, we broaden the discussion of the common beyond the simple opposition between the public and the private, as seems to happen in the case of those who interpret chapter II of The Human Condition from the liberal perspective. Law will therefore appear as the dimension responsible for organizing our insertion in the community through the constitutive activities of our human condition: work, action, opinion and thought.

This work aims at offering a first approach to the study of the metathesis or 'transposition' of the plural morpheme in enclitic clitic clusters -- with the imperative, the infinitive and the gerund. This is a non-standard phenomenon that occurs in the colloquial register of Spanish. For the study of this 'pluralization' of the object when it is combined with another objective pronoun (nos, os), we use an innovative corpus, with data collected from the Internet and Twitter. The goals of this study are to offer a large documentation of this feature and to discover both its distribution in the Spanish-speaking world and the frequency with which it affects each pronoun (nos, os), each verb and each verbal form (imperative, gerund and infinitive). We also connect the phenomenon under study with a number of changes currently affecting the pronominal paradigm in Spanish. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Eroticism, a cultural creation of each society, derives from the evolution of the species through man's domination of the reproductive sexual instinct transforming it into a representation mediated in and by the series of interdicts, practices, rituals, myths and taboos in order to make us different from the other animals. Eroticism is experienced by both those considered “normal" subjects and those considered disabled subjects of every ethnic, cultural and age group and social class. I intend to promote a reflection of the patriarchal culture which permeates the difficulties these subjects face in their experience of erotic love. I believe public policies should shift from the paradigm which focuses the deficiency as an individual phenomenon to the paradigm underlying educational, social, political and sexual diversities and increase the scope of information provided to the family, educational and media spheres so as to develop new tessiture of subjects' experience of erotic love.

The article focuses on the demonstration of temporality through verbal paradigms in Historia del corazón (History of the Heart) by Vicente Aleixandre. The complexity of the Spanish verb system is considered from a pragmatic approach, within which any poetic text is understood as a semantic-pragmatic and intentional unit of interaction, in which the temporal dimensions are the result of the dynamic process of communication. When analysing the linguistic temporality of a lyrical discourse, the temporal and modal relations of verbal paradigms and temporal adverbs are of a particular interest. Since the objects of the study are the poetic texts, characterized by the particular circumstances of enunciation (the most important being the fictional character and the multiplicity of interlocutors), first we explain the methodological framework of the so-called lyrical discursive temporalization with particular systematization of verbal paradigms in poetry. In the remainder of the paper, we analyse the selected examples of Historia del corazón. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La guerra sucia mexicana ha pasado relativamente desapercibida frente al terror de las dictaduras militares del subcontinente. No obstante, la guerra sucia que vivió México desde los años sesenta, que algunos analistas controvertidamente consideran selectiva, produjo centenares de muertos y desaparecidos, como lo exhibió a la opinión pública nacional e internacional la sentencia en el 2009 de la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos contra el Estado mexicano por el caso paradigmático de la desaparición forzada de Rosendo Radilla en 1974.

The main objective of this paper is to show the differences and similarities in the use of demonstrative forms in Polish and Spanish, which arise not only from differences paradigmatic (Spanish ternary system vs Polish binary system), but also pragmatic context. With the help of electronic corpora the author tries to answer the question of what factors influence the conceptualization of these deictic expressions in both languages. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Every school claims the need of developing 'intelligence'. Nonetheless, what gives sense to education is everything but clear. It does not constitute a concept, but only a notion, and highly polemical. Though, it makes sense to revisit its perspective from an historical-critical approach, as well as its relation with the problem of knowing and consciousness. We will do so from a heterodox horizon: trans-disciplinary, trans-paradigmatic and complex. We will consider, among other points of view, those of psychology, linguistics and philosophy. The intention is to give the reader the opportunity, based on what is exposed, of developing his own reflection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Using the »remember-know« paradigm, participants were engaged in a fictitious face recognition experiment in which three between-subject conditions were manipulated by either adding or not adding wrinkles on the faces between the study and the recognition tasks (no change, single change, double change). Our hypothesis was that this procedure would maximize judgments based on familiarity, thus determining whether data provided better fit to the models based on the signal detection theory or to predictions of dual models. In global terms, our results support the signal detection model predictions, although we discuss whether these models better fit tasks based on familiarity or tasks based on recollection.

José Martí warmly praised the first edition of Venezuela heroica (1881) by Eduardo Blanco (1839-1912). Blanco's intellectual career can well be considered paradigmatic of the strategies used by creole letrados in the nineteenth century in their desire to accumulate profitable symbolic capital in an age of shortages and instability. This article analyses Blanco's intervention in the narrative of his nation's history and how it allowed him to become a cultural hero as well as how he constructed the space of the symbolic battlefield on which he had to fight for survival at the very moment of the nation's founding.

In this paper we intend to introduce an analysis of Domingo Faustino Sarmiento's thought in connection with the period of organization of the formalist pedagogical dispositive in Argentina, reconstructing the net which gave origin to certain cultural identities, especially those formed in school-space. Thus, the ideological backgrounds of Sarmiento's programme will be analysed in the context of his intellectual interventions and in its historical organization in connection with the development of modern educational system, with special emphasis on its influence in the pedagogical imaginary of the late nineteenth century. We will specially explore the paradigmatic relation identity/otherness in relation to Sarmiento's concepts of civilization and barbarity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
