  • A Critical Multimodal Social Semiotic Exploration of Ideological Representations
    Spanish-language print media in the United States: A critical multimodal social semiotic exploration of ideological representations A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Megan Marie Strom IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Carol Klee, Cynthia Lewis Co-Advisers May 2013 © Megan Marie Strom 2013 Acknowledgements I would like to gratefully acknowledge the contributions of my dissertation advisers: Carol Klee and Cynthia Lewis. Their comments and feedback were invaluable to the completion of this dissertation. I would also like to acknowledge the unwavering support of my family: Rick, Wanda, and Justine Strom. Without you I could not have done this. Finally, I would like to acknolwedge Alberto Monserrate, Sergio Jara, Rigoberto Castro, Wilmer Díaz, and Jorge Amérigo, who were kind enough to share their time and information with me. i Abstract As of 2010, there were 50.5 million people of Hispanic or Latino origin in the United States (Ennis, Ríos-Vargas and Albert, 2011, p. 2). Although substantial work has been carried out on the linguistic aspects of Spanish spoken in the United States in some cities, there is still much left to be discovered, especially with regards to the linguistic and semiotic characteristics of print Spanish. Furthermore, the analysis of discourse about Latinos as a minoritized group is typically carried out on texts produced by majority groups (cf. de Beaugrande, 2008; Martín Rojo and Gómez Esteban, 2005; Martín Rojo and van Dijk, 1997). In other words, while critical discourse analysts know a great deal about the discursive construction of minoritized groups in discourse created by majority groups (e.g., how the United States mass media represent Latinos), it is not known how such groups create their own discourse (cf.
