Speeches About Men and Women in Technical Education: Between Reproduction and Transformation. A Study Located in Two Argentinian Provinces
2020
La formación técnica en Argentina ha sido un ámbito históricamente masculinizado. Ante el incremento de la matrícula femenina y la visibilización y demandas sociales respecto de las desigualdades de género, nos preguntamos, de qué manera las instituciones de ETP favorecen el reconocimiento y la participación con miras a la justicia social. Este trabajo analiza discursos sobre las desigualdades entre varones y mujeres (en interseccionalidad con otras) que circulan en 12 instituciones de educación técnico profesional en dos provincias argentinas (Neuquén y Mendoza), y sobre los dispositivos de acompañamiento a la escolaridad y articulación con el trabajo que allí se construyen. Desplegamos un…
De errores y erratas. Cómo corregir y normalizar un texto académico
2012
En el presente artículo, se intenta demostrar en primer lugar, a partir de ejemplos de una revista académica de lingüística, que errores y erratas tienen el mismo protagonismo en la corrección de textos académicos. Pero además, que los criterios y procedimientos de normalización – definida como el conjunto de decisiones y de procedimientos que tienden a unificar el estilo de un escrito en todos sus niveles– son fundamentales para que un conjunto de artículos científicos de autores varios o una serie de trabajos de un mismo autor, de distinto tema o etapas académicas, puedan llegar a convertirse en una publicación periódica o en un libro. In the present article, we first intend to demonstrat…
Towards multilingual competence: examining beliefs and agency in first year university students’ language learner biographies
2021
As working life across the world is increasingly multilingual, multicultural and multidisciplinary, higher education language teaching is faced with a challenge of how to prepare students for it. Many universities have recently developed multilingual pedagogies but central to their success is learners’ perceptions of these practices. To fill this gap, this article explores first year university students’ language learner biographies to gain insight into how learners construct their linguistic realities. The biographies were studied with discourse analytical methods to examine the participants’ beliefs about language learning and their sense of agency in it. The results reveal that participa…
Hope and equilibrium in the dystopian world of The Hunger Games
2021
This paper provides evidence of the fruitfulness of combining analytical categories from Cognitive Linguistics and Critical Discourse Analysis for the analysis of complex literary characterizations. It does so through a detailed study of the “tributes”, i.e. the randomly selected children who have to fight to death in a nationally televised show, in The Hunger Games. The study proves the effectiveness of such categories to provide an analytically accurate picture of the dystopian world depicted in the novel, which is revealed to include a paradoxical element of hope. The type of dehumanization that characterizes the dystopian society of Panem is portrayed through an internally consistent se…
Empowerment as an affective-discursive technology in contemporary capitalism: insights from a play
2019
Over recent years, an increasing body of research in social and cultural studies has investigated the contemporary processes of social change from the point of view of affective capitalism. In this article, we take under scrutiny one of its technologies, namely, empowerment, by which we mean a state characterised by feelings of strength, ability and power that enable agency. More specifically, we investigate the way empowerment is presented in a cultural product, a play that tells a story about personnel training in a factory, shown in a city theatre in Finland. By linking recent theorisation of affective capitalism with an investigation of the intertextual and interdiscursive relations of …
Discordances in Ascriptions of Agency and Reflectivity in the First Psychotherapy Session
2018
We analyzed the first sessions of nine long-term individual psychotherapies with a model of ten discursive tools of agency ascription and studied discursive discordances, sequences of two talk turns in which the therapeutic dyad was misaligned in terms of how they ascribed agency to the client. We also studied how the clients’ agency self-ascriptions in the turn immediately following the discordances changed from the first turn. Classifying these discordance sequences, eight different types of sequences were found. One, in which the clients’ reflective agency constructions were missed by the therapists, was subjected to a detailed analysis. peerReviewed
In nomine patris: Discursive strategies and ideology in the Cosa Nostra family discourse
2017
Abstract The article investigates how Cosa Nostra family discourse is characterized by a series of discursive strategies that give shape to specific ideological structures. By analysing a TV interview to the son of Bernardo Provenzano, boss of Cosa Nostra, it is possible to understand how the criminal values and practices are maintained and reproduced within the father–son relationship. Specifically, we show how the son justifies, legitimises or denies the criminal actions of his father. The ideology of Cosa Nostra seems to be based on the inter-generational cultural continuity of its members, on the family as main locus of adherence, reductionism of its mediatic image, amoralism as father–…

Präpositionale Wortgruppen im Altspanischen: 13.-15. Jahrhundert
2013
Der Untersuchungsgegenstand dieser Dissertation sind präpositionale Wortgruppen (PWG) (locuciones prepositivas) in kastilischen Texten aus dem Mittelalter. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist eine kontrastive Analyse von PWG an Hand von zwei Diskurstraditionen, einer juristischen und einer historischen, während des 13., 14. und 15.Jahrhunderts. Das Hauptkorpus beinhaltet zu jedem Jahrhundert einen juristischen und einen chronistischen Text. Um der Gefahr der einseitigen Konzentration auf juristische und chronistische Texte zu entgehen, werden für jedes Jahrhundert ein zusätzlicher Text aus der Gattung der Literatur ausgewertet (Calila e Dimna, El Conde Lucanor und La Celestina). Ausgangspunkt dieser Arb…
Emoticonos y multimodalidad. El uso del pulgar hacia arriba en WhatsApp
2016
El presente trabajo propone una aproximación multimodal al estudio de los emoticonos a través del análisis del uso del emoji del pulgar hacia arriba en un corpus de mensajes de WhatsApp. Además de contribuir a superar la idea, todavía muy arraigada, de que los emoticonos sirven para expresar emociones en el discurso digital, el trabajo toma en consideración algunos aspectos tradicionalmente obviados en el estudio sobre estas pequeñas caras, en concreto, la historia que hay detrás de estos recursos semióticos, la sofisticada relación entre imagen y texto y la interacción entre los usuarios en la vida real y en la pantalla. In the present paper a multimodal approach to the study of emoticons …
