    Arachne@Rutgers Journal of Iberian and Latin American Literary and Cultural Studies, Volume 2, Issue 1 (2002) The Role of the City in the Formation of Spanish American Dialect Zones © John M. Lipski The Pennsylvania State University E-mail - [email protected] 1. Introduction Five hundred years ago, a rather homogeneous variety of Spanish spoken by a few thousand settlers was scattered across two continents. Although many regional languages were spoken in fifteenth century Spain (and most are still spoken even today), only Castilian made its way to the Americas, in itself a remarkable development. More remarkable still is the regional and social variation that characterizes modern Latin American Spanish; some of the differences among Latin American Spanish dialects are reflected in dialect divisions in contemporary Spain, while others are unprecedented across the Atlantic. Some practical examples of this diversity are: At least in some part of every Latin American nation except for Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, the pronoun vos is used instead of or in competition with tú for familiar usage; at least six different sets of verbal endings accompany voseo usage. The pronoun vos is not used in any variety of Peninsular Spanish, nor has it been used for more than three hundred years. In the Caribbean, much of Central America, the entire Pacific coast of South America, the Rio de la Plata nations, and a few areas of Mexico, syllable and word-final consonants are weakened or lost, especially final [s]. In interior highland areas of Mexico, Guatemala, and the Andean zone of South America, final consonants are tenaciously retained, while unstressed vowels are often lost, thus making quinientas personas sound like quinients prsons.

    CAJUNS, CREOLES, PIRATES AND PLANTERS Your New Louisiana Ancestors Format Volume 1, Number 18 By Damon Veach SIG MEETING: Le Comité des Archives de la Louisiane’s African American Special Interest Group (SIG) will hold a meeting on July 25th, from 9:00 to 11:30 a.m. at the Delta Sigma Theta Life Development Center located at 688 Harding Blvd., next to Subway. The meeting is free and open to the public. Ryan Seidemann, President of the Mid City Historical Cemetery Coalition in Baton Rouge, will speak on Sweet Olive Cemetery. Officially dating back to 1898, Sweet Olive was the first cemetery for blacks incorporated in the Baton Rouge city limits. Burials are, however, believed to have occurred prior to 1898. Members of the group will give short presentations on a variety of African American genealogy topics. Cherryl Forbes Montgomery will discuss how to use Father Hebert’s Southwest Louisiana Records effectively. Barbara Shepherd Dunn will describe how she identified and documented the slave owners of her great grandmother. And, Judy Riffel will speak on the SIG’s efforts to create an East Baton Rouge Parish slave database. Time will be allowed at the end of the program for attendees to share their own genealogical problems and successes and to ask questions. With nearly 600 members, Le Comité is one of the largest genealogical groups in the state today. Its African American Genealogy SIG was formed in 2006 to help people doing African American research in Louisiana have a place to communicate and help one another. The group currently consists of 24 Le Comité members who have begun holding meetings and seminars.

It’s the most populated autonomous community of Spain. Andalusia The Andalusians have a reputation for always being partying and making others laugh. When they talk about things they tend to distort reality, increasing it. People from Spain usually think that Andalusian people are lazy. They usually are hospitable, religious, superstitious and generous. Basque Country The Basque Country is an autonomous community in northern Spain. The political capital is Vitoria. Of the Basques there are two generalized prejudices, that they all are separatist and tough people. They are hard, frank, robust, lovers of their land, separatists, gross and they never laugh. A possible explanation for this, if it is true, is that traditional Basque sports stand out for being very physical, for the need to use quite a lot of force. On the other hand, the fact that they are separatists comes from political issues due to the nationalist thoughts of a part of the population. Galicia Galicia is an autonomous community of Spain and historic nationality under Spanish law. It’s Located in the north-west of the Iberian Peninsula. The political capital is Santiago de Compostela, in the province of A Coruña. Galicians are considered closed, distrustful, indecisive, superstitious and traditionalists. Canary Islands The Canary Islands is a Spanish archipelago and the southernmost autonomous community of Spain located in the Atlantic Ocean, 100 kilometres west of Morocco at the closest point.

Missions Missions Mission System • Presidios - To protect the missions, presidios were established. • A presidio is a military base. Soldiers in these bases were generally responsible for protecting several missions. Mission System • Towns – towns and settlements were built near the missions and colonists were brought in for colonies to grow and survive. • The first group of colonists to establish a community was the Canary Islanders in San Antonio (1730). Mission System • Ranches – ranching was more conducive to where missions and settlements were thriving (San Antonio). • Cattle were easier to raise and protect as compared to farming.

  • The Spanish of the Canary Islands
    THE SPANISH OF THE CANARY ISLANDS An indisputable influence in the formation of Latin American Spanish, often overshadowed by discussion of the `Andalusian' contribution, is the Canary Islands. Beginning with the first voyage of Columbus, the Canary Islands were an obligatory way-station for Spanish ships sailing to the Americas, which often stayed in the islands for several weeks for refitting and boarding of provisions. Canary Islanders also participated actively in the settlement and development of Spanish America. The Canary Islands merit a bizarre entry in the history of European geography, since the islands were well known to ancient navigators, only to pass into oblivion by the Middle Ages. After the early descriptions of Pliny and other writers of the time, more than a thousand years were to pass before the Canary Islands were mentioned in European texts, although contact between the indigenous Guanches and the nearby north African coast continued uninterrupted. Spain colonized the Canary Islands beginning in 1483, and by the time of Columbus's voyages to the New World, the Canary Islands were firmly under Spanish control. The indigenous Guanche language disappeared shortly after the Spanish conquest of the islands, but left a legacy of scores of place names, and some regional words. From the outset, the Canaries were regarded as an outpost rather than a stable colony, and the islands' livlihood revolved around maritime trade. Although some islanders turned to farming, particularly in the fertile western islands, more turned to the sea, as fishermen and sailors. With Columbus's discoveries, the Canary Islands became obligatory stopover points en route to the New World, and much of the islands' production was dedicated to resupplying passing ships.

  • Skill Selectivity in Transatlantic Migration: the Case of Canary Islanders in Cuba*
    SKILL SELECTIVITY IN TRANSATLANTIC MIGRATION: THE CASE OF CANARY ISLANDERS IN CUBA* DÁCIL JUIF University of Wageningena ABSTRACT The skill composition of European migrants to the New World and their contribution to the human capital and institutional formation in destination countries are popular topics in economic history. This study assesses the skill composition of 19th century transatlantic migrants to Cuba. It finds that nearly half of the European immigrants originate from the Spanish province of the Canary Islands, which displays the lowest literacy and numeracy rates of Spain. Even within this province, those who left belonged to the least skilled section of the population. By promoting the influx of a cheap and poorly educated white workforce that replaced African slaves on their sugar estates, large landowners in Cuba contributed to the perpetuation of high economic, political and social inequality.

  • CAJUNS, CREOLES, PIRATES and PLANTERS Your New Louisiana Ancestors Format Volume 1, Number 36
    CAJUNS, CREOLES, PIRATES AND PLANTERS Your New Louisiana Ancestors Format Volume 1, Number 36 By Damon Veach LAND GRANTS: There are many ways to solve ancestral problems. In recent columns, several of these venues have been discussed. This just goes to show that there is more to genealogical research than one might think. If at first you don’t find clues in one area of research, you have to move on and seek the answers from another angle. Land grants comprise another method of seeking out information on family lineages. In fact, this was one of the major elements that led many families to give up their homes in the eastern part of the country and seek a new life to the west. This is definitely true with the Foshee family in DeSoto Parish. Morris Smith Foshee, my great grandfather, served in the Civil War, and after the war, he obtained a land grant that brought him to Louisiana with his family. Most of my direct lineage settled in DeSoto Parish but others went into areas below DeSoto Parish. On this tract of land bordering on the state line of Texas, the Foshee family forged their new life. The old dogtrot home still stands today and stepping inside is like stepping back in time. The pictures, furniture, and all the personal items are still there. My cousin maintains the home, and even the old black kettle is still in the front yard. The fence is no longer there, but other than the hallway being closed off to save on heating expenses, the home is the same.
