The Impact of the Mexican Revolution on Spanish in the United States∗
The impact of the Mexican Revolution on Spanish in the United States∗ John M. Lipski The Pennsylvania State University My charge today is to speak of the impact of the Mexican Revolution on Spanish in the United States. While I have spent more than forty years listening to, studying, and analyzing the Spanish language as used in the United States, I readily confess that the Mexican Revolution was not foremost in my thoughts for many of those years. My life has not been totally without revolutionary influence, however, since in my previous job, at the University of New Mexico, our department had revised its bylaws to reflect the principles of sufragio universal y no reelección. When I began to reflect on the full impact of the Mexican Revolution on U. S. Spanish, I immediately thought of the shelf-worn but not totally irrelevant joke about the student who prepared for his biology test by learning everything there was to know about frogs, one of the major topics of the chapter. When the day of the exam arrived, he discovered to his chagrin that the essay topic was about sharks. Deftly turning lemons into lemonade, he began his response: “Sharks are curious and important aquatic creatures bearing many resemblances to frogs, which have the following characteristics ...”, which he then proceeded to name. The joke doesn’t mention what grade he received for his effort. For the next few minutes I will attempt a similar maneuver, making abundant use of what I think I already know, hoping that you don’t notice what I know that I don’t know, and trying to get a passing grade at the end of the day. -

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES El español de California en el XIX A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requierements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures by María Covadonga Lamar Prieto 2012 © Copyright by María Covadonga Lamar Prieto 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION El español de California en el XIX by María Covadonga Lamar Prieto Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Claudia Parodi, Chair La historia del español en California está íntimamente relacionada con la forma en que se llevó a cabo la anexión a los Estados Unidos en 1848 y, más adelante, con la legislación que se impuso en el territorio. Debido a una serie de causas que se explican en detalle, el español de California del XIX quedó sometido a un estado de pre-diglosia, que se ha manifestado hasta el tiempo presente en la forma de una diglosia completa. Además, y considerando el español de California en el XIX desde la perspectiva de la sociolingüística histórica, se examinan cuestiones de legislación, raza y etnicidad y, más importante, de propiedad de la tierra para entender su efecto en el desarrollo del español de California. De todo lo anterior podemos concluir que el español de California fue un dialecto histórico del español de los Estados Unidos y que, hasta el día de hoy, mantiene vínculos con sus dialectos descendientes, como pueda ser el LASV. ii The dissertation of María Covadonga Lamar Prieto is approved Carlos Quícoli Teo F.

SPN 368C / Unique # 45780 / Fall 2018 Tuesdays & Thursdays 9:30-11:00 in MEZ 1.208 Contact Spanish in the United States Professor Almeida Jacqueline Toribio Email: [email protected] Office hours: Mondays & Tuesday 11-12:30 and by appointment, in BEN 3.150 Course description • This course presents an overview of the language situation of established and emerging Spanish-speaking communities in the United States. To that end, we address the historical presence of Spanish and the current demographic profiles of its speakers; we consider the diversity of varieties of U.S. Spanish in the domains of lexicon, phonology/phonetics, and morpho-syntax; and we examine the consequences of dialect and language contact via analyses of phenomena such as borrowing, calquing, code-switching, and convergence. Attention is also devoted to the social factors that modulate Spanish language usage in public domains. In particular, we explore cultural productions and representations of U.S. Spanish and its speakers, as manifested in the across media and artistic forms. Course requirements • Attendance and active participation: Careful preparation and discussion of readings and completion of in-class and at-home activities. • Written assignments: 60%. Assignments designed to assess the student’s knowledge of pertinent concepts and ability to analyze linguistic data and to communicate findings in Spanish. • Research presentation [10%] and written report [30%]. Original research that analyzes a small set of language data (e.g., a YouTube video, speeches by public figures, open corpora, survey data, samples from social networks, excerpts from film or television programs, etc.). The results must be presented as a concise research report (2500-3000 words) that includes an introduction motivating the project, a review of a limited body of relevant literature, a description of the methods and analysis, an accurate representation of results, and a discussion of the significance of the findings. -

What vestiges of the colonies created by Conquistadores would they find? What would they say of that riotous preoccupation about Spanish origins, recalling, with a smile, that none of the great leaders brought a wife or family with him? Arthur L. Campa' Arthur Campa, the renowned folklorist who wrote in the 1930s and 1940s, provides a refreshing response to the "preoccupation about Spanish origins" in New Mexico, and should be a key voice in the discourse around the tri -cul- tural trope2 that represents New Mexico today. That tri -cultural image is of the Indian, the Hispano, and the Anglo, and that image manifests itself in public enactments, in tourism publicity, and has penetrated the collective consciousness of the region. The questions that must be asked in this region so recently severed from Mexico, and so long the outpost of an empire of colonized mestizos, are: Why is the mestizo, the mexicano, excluded from that iconic image? Why was the mes- tizo invisible and unheard from the time of the U.S. -
