La utilidad de lo efímero en el estudio de la lengua del siglo XIX: Cuestiones gramaticales a través de la prensa

Abstract

The press, during the 19^th century, became the ideal means to disseminate and expose the most diverse issues. Because of the acquired social scope, it is the most important written text of this period and in it the language reaches special prominence. Therefore, the opinions expressed, the debates raised or the propagation of new linguistic models appeared in its pages allow us to highlight the usefulness of this ephemeral means for the evolution of the Spanish language, related to a period little studied. The analysis of certain grammatical questions will be a clear example of its importance. In addition, it's very likely that certain changes were propagated or were first reported on its pages.
