Abstract
El objetivo de esta investigación es mostrar cómo se organiza el discurso en textos prosísticos del siglo XVIII, periodo de gran relevancia en la historia de la lengua española pues en él se desarrollan nuevos modelos de organización discursiva que se manifiestan en una forma de expresión más sencilla y a la vez más precisa y matizada. Nos centramos en el estudio de dos tipos de marcadores discursivos, de ordenación y de explicación, que presentan un empleo habitual en la prosa de esta época y que muestran, por un lado, una delimitación de las formas y una distribución de las funciones en los respectivos paradigmas y, por otro, la incorporación de nuevos signos y de nuevas funciones y valores discursivos en los ya existentes. El análisis nos permite demostrar que las funciones y valores discursivos que presentan estos marcadores en los textos escritos de la primera etapa del español moderno configuran los modos en que se establecerá la estructuración del discurso en los siglos XIX y XX, cuando se consolidan y se amplían estos usos. Las bases teóricas de la investigación se sustentan en los conceptos de gramaticalización por expansión, subjetivizacion y tradiciones discursivas; con los dos primeros se explican los factores internos que han motivado el desarrollo de estos marcadores discursivos hasta configurarse como tales en el Setecientos; el tercero permite dar cuenta de la incorporación, difusión y arraigo de los marcadores en diferentes géneros y modelos textuales.
The aim of this research is to show how discourse is organized in eighteenth-century prose texts, a period of great importance in the history of the Spanish language, since in that period new models of discourse organization were developed in the form of both simpler and more precise expression. We focus on the study of two types of discourse markers: order and explanation. These markers are frequently used in the prose of this period; the relevant properties are, first, the delimitation of form and the distribution of function in their respective paradigms and, secondly, the incorporation of new signs and the introduction of new functions and discourse values in addition to the existing ones. The analysis allows us to demonstrate that the discourse functions and values of these markers in the written texts of the first stage of modern Spanish configure the ways in which discourse structuring will be established in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, when these are consolidated and expanded. The theoretical approach to this problem is based on the concepts of grammaticalization as expansion and subjectification, which serve to explain the internal factors that have motivated the development of these discourse markers in the eighteenth century, and the concept of discourse traditions in order to detail their incorporation, diffusion and consolidation in different genres and textual models.
