La codificación de lo pluriverbal en la serie textual del gramático venezolano Baldomero Rivodó (1821-1915)

The Venezuelan Baldomero Rivodó is the author of a grammatical textual series made up of the two editions of his Tratado de los compuestos castellanos (Caracas, 1878, and Paris, 1883) and a collection of Entretenimientos gramaticales: colección de tratados y opúsculos sobre diferentes puntos relativos al idioma castellano (Paris, 1890-1902). Faced with a grammatical tradition centered on word units, these works progressively propose a propitious framework for the grammatization, within the tradition of word formation, of multiword or phraseological expressions, particularly those of a nominal nature. Rivodó’s work embodies the syncretism between a Hispanic canonical grammatical tradition (represented by RAE, Salvá or Bello) and new ideas from France (the logicism and the syntactic perspective represented by Darmesteter), only possible in a space free of theoretical constraints as it was the American. Rivodó uses the classic concept of juxtaposition to overcome the traditional limits of the word in the field of lexical categories. In this work we analyze the audacious contribution of this author to the slow and continuous formation of a morphological theory over pluriverbal units.
