Spanish is spoken as a first language by almost 400 million people
in approximately 60 countries, and has been the subject of numerous
political processes and debates since it began to spread globally
from Iberia in the thirteenth century. A Political History of
Spanish brings together a team of experts to analyze the
metalinguistic origins of Spanish and evaluate it as a discursively
constructed artefact; that is to say, as a language which contains
traces of the society in which it is produced, and of the
discursive traditions that are often involved and invoked in its
creation. This is a comprehensive and provocative new work which
takes a fresh look at Spanish from specific political and
historical perspectives, combining the traditional chronological
organization of linguistic history and spatial categories such as
Iberia, Latin America and the US, whilst simultaneously identifying
the limits of these organizational principles.
