This study will enable us to examine to what extent the Spanish press contributes to stereotype this kind of family model. Amongst our conclusions are: (1) in the last analyzed biennium, a greater visibility and less social concealment of the phenomenon has been revealed; (2) over time there was some change in the kind of issues related to this family model; and (3) certain lexical items have been traditionally associated with social exclusion and poverty, whereas other lexical items have been associated with women’s empowerment.","PeriodicalId":53723,"journal":{"name":"Philologica Canariensia","volume":"23 1","pages":"33-48"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44900764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The free verse innovates the modernist silva by introducing the versiculo, a compound line whose members share the general hendecasyllabic rhythm. The prosification of Juan Ramon Jimenez’s last poems meant a radical evolution of the free verse, but this move remained marginal. However, the hyperverse of the “novisimos” arises in the sixties as a link between the original free verse and its prosified variety. Besides, the hyperverse is a characterizing feature of the poetry of the “novisimos” which relates their generation to the vanguard.","PeriodicalId":53723,"journal":{"name":"Philologica Canariensia","volume":"23 1","pages":"49-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46478052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This allows us to contribute to the linguistic characterization of sports discourse in French, especially football newspaper articles. In order to analyze the corpus, we will first identify the terms and syntactic structures used in articles from L’Equipe that refer to the most prototypical elements of the football event, i.e., teams, players, coaches, moves, and other elements. Secondly, we will determine how regularly journalists mention each one of these referents in terms of types and tokens.

This article also addresses Watanabe’s way of understanding the world, especially the world opened through his word, which involves a dimension of experience that constantly stands in opposition to certain types of knowledge, for example, physics, mathematics, linguistics, or medicine. The subject who dwells in Watanabe’s poems is at the antipodes of this kind of knowledge. The wisdom transmitted through his poetry depends on both the personal experience of the subject and that which comes out from “the deep mouth of the eldest”.","PeriodicalId":53723,"journal":{"name":"Philologica Canariensia","volume":"22 1","pages":"43-54"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2016-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67540085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
