Recenzje

"...this book will be truly appreciated by linguists and Spanish cultural studies scholars, and will be an invaluable resource for a Spanish Sociolinguistics class. Students of Spanish as a foreign language will benefit greatly from this work, as it provides tools to better understand the concepts presented in each of the chapters through glossaries and practice activities." – The Canadian Journal of Linguistics, March 2016


"Introducción a la sociolingüística hispánica is a textbook with an undeniable homogeneity, which includes fundamental sociolinguistic concepts with rigor and without skipping details. The book is reader–friendly for those who are beginning in this engaging field, and serves as a complete compilation for those who are beyond the basic level. This book follows an impeccable pedagogical path from the beginning to the end that makes this textbook indispensable for the teaching of Hispanic sociolinguistics at the introductory university level." – Boletín de Lingüística

"Introducción a la sociolingüística hispánica es un texto con una unidad innegable, que abarca los principales postulados de la sociolingüística con rigor y sin menospreciar el detalle. La obra constituye un texto amistoso para quienes se inician en tan apasionante labor y un “álbum”, sin desperdicio, para los ya iniciados. La impecable huella didáctica del texto se mantiene presente de principio a fin y hace de esta obra un manual indispensable para la enseñanza de la sociolingüística hispánica en los niveles universitarios introductorios." – Boletín de Lingüística

"... Díaz–Campos provides a detailed panorama of the sociolinguistic studies to date, utilizes an engaging writing style, and incorporates innovative activities and exercises. The textbook is an excellent teaching tool for instructors of Hispanic linguistics and is a must–read for students in the field."  – LINGUIST, May 2015

This book is very well organized and presents the material with an eye to classroom teaching. For instance, after each chapter there are reading comprehension questions that can help teachers organize class discussion and students develop their critical thinking skills. There are also subsections in each chapter that include contextualized tasks for the students that invite them to reflect on their own sociolinguistic settings, to apply the concepts learned, and to think about research topics… Every chapter introduces novel ways to conceive sociolinguistic phenomena. – Margarita Jara Yupanqui, Sociolinguistic Studies, February 2017

Blurb

Introducción a la Sociolingüística Hispánica is a much–needed introduction for undergraduates to the study of sociolinguistics in the Spanish–speaking world. The book is written in Spanish, with an intended audience of second– and heritage–language speakers, so is paced accordingly with a minimum of jargon. The chapters are organized into sections covering the major sociolinguistic subfields, including foundations concepts for sociolinguistics, phonological variation, morpho–syntactic variation, language in contact, code switching, bilingualism, Spanish in the United States, language attitudes, language and power and ideology, language and the law, and language and gender.

In exploring the social meaning of language choices, each chapter provides an outline of topics covered, an introduction, a review of topics, a summary, a section of key terms, exercises and questions on the material, and a selected bibliography. In addition, all chapters are complemented with data analysis exercises and small hands–on projects for practicing the theoretical concepts presented, using electronic databases, popular music and audiovisual material.
