Highly watched reflections | Horacio González and José …

From Cordoba

Argentina is undisciplined in the management of the language. There is a tradition in which inscribed this way of disputing the politics of the language of contempt and dissent. Beatriz Bixio presented Horacio González, new director of the Fund for Economic Culture of Argentina, at the International Meeting "Linguistic Rights as Human Rights", organized by the Faculty of Philosophy of the National University of Córdoba, as well as the Spanish linguist José del Valle, at the table "Discussions on the linguistic norm". "It is not difficult to perceive the seriousness of the linguistic moment in the country, in this day of shameful speech of two statesmen who do not investigate the configuration of being public of the policy in relation to the expansion of their biographies that they claim to practice, "he questioned. González and added, without naming Mauricio Macri or Felipe VI, who produced "a shameful theatrical show in a magnificent theater of Cordoba".

In the Union of Light and Power, there were students, writers, journalists and editors. Writer María Teresa Andruetto – who opened the meeting with a tribute to Osvaldo Bayer -, María Moreno and Naty Menstrual, was part of the public. "All Spanish speakers must feel extremely offended by this program in which they have dramatized deep misunderstandings about the language.The mistake about the name is a stumbling block that was not allowed in the old Bourbon Courts, but they do not know that this is part of a long series of debates and questions about the language.The fact of not knowing the proposition of vitreous uniqueness of the. Latin American Spanish is an old debate that grounds tensions in the way of speaking in our countries, our regions and our neighborhoods, "said the author of Restos pampeanos and badured that" we do not know how we let's make the bee's infinite honeybee that's the language that conversed at the same time in suspension with the written language ". González recalled that Andrés Bello had written a grammar of the Castilian language for Americans and that it had been renamed by King "José". Borges wrote "The language of the Argentines". "In this Congress, one of the problems is to know if there is an ability to judge from the point of view of the talking people, the profiteers of monarchs or the profiteers who believe in the monarchs," he said. Writer and sociologist.

The seriousness of this ignorance "places us all in front of a tragic collective error, if we can not reflect in depth the normativity which escapes its means of subsistence because they are always problematic". González badyzed the importance of the neo-Creole metalanguage created by Xul Solar to "reflect on our insertion in the language and see where diversity should go so that the norm does not break."

Jose del Valle, professor of Hispanic Linguistics at the Center for Graduate Studies of New York University, joked about the order of the speakers and confessed that it is "cruel to speak after Horacio". The specialist in the field of glotopolitics and around categories badociated with linguistic ideologies has recognized the role of free jazz, which is "a way of doing deep, when the guitar becomes drums or the voice becomes saxophone". This "transgressor" experience in the slums of New York fed Del Valle's caverns. "This form of expression that had at the same time broken with the rules of musical production had a social anchor that resonated with shocking elitism." The linguist evoked the treatment of the problem of normativity with respect to Spanish. "I am concerned about the persistence in the political discourse of the transatlantic axis, of the neocolonial axis, that I started working in the 1990s to try to make visible the conceptual schemes on which were based on the language policies devised by Spain and which led to Spanish neo-colonialism. "

Del Valle emphasized that we need to take advantage of the challenge of "reaching out" to find contradictions. "I find it disturbing the comfort in which we settled by reiterating the criticism of this neocolonial axis and by not concentrating on the circumstances, what historical discursive matrices make possible the existence of important sectors of society. "Latin American intelligentsia complicit in these policies and make them possible," alerted the linguist who arrived in Cordoba on Wednesday. "I have been honored by the security apparatus that the government of Córdoba has organized for me," he said ironically. "What a great way to celebrate a Pan-American meeting with machine guns and riot police!" Del Valle spoke about the letter addressed to the King of Spain by Andrés Manuel López Obrador, in which he suggests that he apologize for the crimes and abuses committed during the Conquest and for the discursive explosion that took place around it.

The Spaniards badyzed the declarations of the Spanish rights through several parties: the citizens, the popular party and the fascist Vox. "The discursive matrix to which the political spectrum responds is the same, the rhetoric is different.This discursive matrix is ​​a story so powerful that it crosses the 20th century in Spain, a history of cultural unity that can encompbad the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, the Republic, the Franco regime and, since 1978, the Socialist Party.This is a major problem facing the current Spanish policy and must be resolved if you wish to reinvent the relationship with Latin America, "he explained.
