Authoritative Discourse in Language Columns: Linguistic, Ideological and Social issues

This volume addresses an essential topic to understand the relations between language and society: the representation of authority in discourses on language. It does so in a panromanic scope through the analysis of the columns on language in a contrastive, diatopic and diachronic approach to the relations between language and power.

In this volume the team of the research group CIRCULA jointly addresses one of the topics of greatest interest to understand the relations between language and society: the representation of authority in discourses on language. And it does so through the analysis of the columns on language, a journalistic genre in which opinions of the language are accepted or rejected according to the criteria of some type of authority. The panromanic scope of the works Latin America, Spain, Canada (Quebec), France, Belgium, Switzerland and Italy and the wide range of dates XIX and XX centuries, which cover the entirety of its existence allow a contrastive, diatopic and diachronic approach to the relations between language and power through this particular type of metalinguistic discourses in the press.
