Qüestions de llengua i representació: el món catalanoparlant entre diferències i semblances
No full textOur self-image is shaped through dynamic, context-dependent discursive processes influenced by how we view others and how they view us. These representations often rely on linguistic resources and cultural traditions, highlighting binary oppositions—frequently negative—to define identity. While common sense tends to favor such oppositions, difference only gains meaning alongside similarity. Across disciplines, both aspects are crucial in shaping identity narratives. Recently, however, binary and essentialist identity discourses have gained strength globally due to political and ideological factors. This trend is especially evident today in Catalan-speaking contexts, raising concerns about how identities are constructed and represented in public discourse.
This study begins by reflecting on the complex issue of representing the self, the collective "us," and the Other—an enduring concern across the humanities addressed through multiple perspectives and purposes. Rather than aiming for an exhaustive overview, we present a selection of frameworks that focus on the representation of social actors and events using linguistic and discursive approaches. More specifically, we introduce four key theoretical frameworks: critical discourse studies, imagology, narrative theory, and framing. These approaches are inherently multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and often interwoven. They offer essential tools to analyze how identities and social realities are constructed discursively and interpreted through sociolinguistic, cognitive, and—though not explored here—literary lenses.
A central goal of these frameworks is to understand how individuals use language and cognition to make sense of their lives and environments. Language plays a pivotal role in shaping social meaning and identity, acting as the medium through which belonging and difference are negotiated. This aligns with classic classification theories proposed by Durkheim and Lévi-Strauss, which emphasize the social function of organizing the world through oppositions and affinities.
While conceptually related, the selected approaches differ in hierarchy, focus, and method. The study first outlines their distinct features and contributions to understanding identity representation. It then explores how these frameworks intersect and complement one another, concluding with a rationale for their inclusion in this collective scholarly effort
Entre diferença i semblança. La representació del món catalanoparlant en el discurs d'avui i d'ahir
No full textGli studi raccolti in questo volume propongono, da una pluralità di prospettive disciplinari, una riflessione articolata sulle diverse dinamiche che configurano le rappresentazioni del mondo catalano, sulle conseguenze e i rischi insiti nei binarismi, nonché sulla complessità dei processi di costruzione delle immagini identitarie nella sfera pubblica catalana.
L’analisi di tali questioni si colloca all’interno di un quadro metodologico multidisciplinare, interdisciplinare e transdisciplinare, che comprende contributi di natura linguistica, discorsiva, traduttologica, mediatica, culturale e di genere, affrontati sia in una prospettiva sincronica sia in una diacronica
Los paradigmas derivativos según clase de palabra y categoría semántica en las conexiones léxicas
No full textEste artículo tiene el propósito de aportar elementos a los debates acerca del rol de los paradigmas derivativos en el almacenamiento y organización de los ítems en el lexicón. A partir de ejemplos de dos lenguas tipológica y genéticamente dispares, el español (indoeuropea) y el wichí (mataguaya), se sugiere que los paradigmas derivativos contribuyen a la configuración de las conexiones léxicas al mismo tiempo que el tipo de conexión léxica que se conforma por los paradigmas motivan, en parte, el desarrollo y permanencia de dichos paradigmas. Asimismo, en tanto los paradigmas derivativos se configuran en torno a dos ejes, uno de los cuales es la categoría semántica para una clase de palabra particular, este análisis también aporta a las discusiones acerca de las categorías o clases semántica y sintáctica.This article has the purpose of contributing elements to the debates about the role of derivative paradigms in the storage and organization of items in the lexicon. Based on examples from two typologically and genetically disparate languages, Spanish (Indo-European) and Wichí (Mataguayan), it is suggested that derivational paradigms contribute to the configuration of lexical connections at the same time as the type of lexical connection that is formed. by the paradigms motivate, in part, the development and permanence of said paradigms. Likewise, while the derivative paradigms are configured around two axes, one of which is the semantic category for a particular word class, this analysis also contributes to the discussions about the semantic and syntactic categories or classes.Fil: Nercesian, Verónica.
