As vibrantes são um tema interessante à composição de um mosaico dos aspectos segmentais do PA, visto que há muitas controvérsias na literatura sobre seu status fonológico, tanto na atualidade quanto em períodos passados da língua. Ademais, existem poucos trabalhos desenvolvidos na área a respeito deste assunto. Nosso objetivo era o de verificar se, no estágio trovadoresco do português, havia dois fonemas róticos em oposição, ou se, no nível fonológico, o som representado por <rr> poderia ser interpretado como uma variante geminada do grafado como <r>. Os segmentos geminados compreendem uma sucessão de dois elementos, sendo que um deles completa a coda da sílaba antecedente, travando-a, e o outro se situa no início da sílaba seguinte. A análise dos dados foi realizada a partir dos modelos fonológicos não-lineares, em especial as teorias autossegmental e métrica. A metodologia escolhida se embasou na observação da possibilidade de variação na escrita das vibrantes, visando estabelecer as relações existentes entre letras e sons, e no estudo do comportamento de <rr> dobrado em posição de ataque, de coda e entre vogais. O exame da amostragem colet...

The trill consonants are an interesting theme in a mosaic of phonological segments in Ancient Portuguese, since there are many controversies in literature about their phonological status, not only nowadays, but also in past periods of the language. Furthermore, there are few works developed in this area regarding this topic. Our aim was to verify if in the Portuguese troubadour stage there were two rhotic phonemes in opposition, or if in the phonological level the sound represented by <rr> could be interpreted as a geminate variant of the <r> spelling. The geminate segments comprise a succession of two elements, given that one of them completes the coda position of the previous syllable and the other lays in the beginning of the following syllable. The data analysis was made as of non-linear phonological models, especially the auto segmental and metric theories. The chosen methodology was based on the observation of the possibility of variety in the trill consonants spelling, aiming at establishing existing relations between letters and sounds, and on the study of the behavior of <rr> double in position of onset, coda and between vowels. The examination of the collected sample s... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre

O presente trabalho, resultado das pesquisas do Grupo de Morfologia Histórica do Português, procura estudar os aspectos semânticos do sufixo -ista no português e no galego, baseando-se na afirmação de VIARO (2005), segundo a qual a semântica da base é diferente da semântica do sufixo e da semântica da palavra formada pela derivação com este, e ressaltando, que não necessariamente a semântica da palavra formada é a soma das semânticas do sufixo e base. Desde esta ótica, traça-se, inicialmente, um panorama histórico e um mapeamento geral da semântica das palavras derivadas com o sufixo proveniente da terminação grega -#953;&#963;&#964;&#951;&#962; em várias línguas, e, posteriormente, faz-se um estudo em corpora das línguas portuguesa e galega, propondo-se uma classificação semântica das palavras formadas com o sufixo -ista, a qual, detalhada por perspectivas históricas e etimológicas, conduz a uma classificação semântica do sufixo -ista, no português e no galego. / The present work, which is the result of the researches carried out by the Grupo de Morfologia Histórica do Português [\"Group of Historical Morphology of the Portuguese Language\"], studies the semantic aspects of the suffix -ista, in Portuguese and Galician, based on VIARO\'s (2005) assertion, according to which the base semantics is different from the suffix semantics and also different from the semantics of the word formed by the derivation with this suffix, and the semantics of the word formed isn\'t necessarily the sum of the base semantics with the suffix semantics. From this standpoint, we initially draw a historical overview and a general map of the semantics of the words derived with the suffix originating from the Greek ending -&#953;&#963;&#964;&#951;&#962;, in several languages. Based on an analysis of the Portuguese corpora and the Galician corpora, we subsequently propose a semantic classification of the words formed by the suffix -ista, which, after providing a detailed historical and etymological perspective, leads to a semantic classification of the suffix -ista, in the Portuguese and Galician languages.

My thesis, Literary Citizenship and the Politics of Language: The Galician Literary Field between 1939 and 1965, is the first attempt to examine the building process of Galician national literature by focusing on one of its constitutive elements, the linguistic criterion. Drawing on Mario Santana's concept of literary citizenship, which can be defined as membership of a literary community, it pays attention to the development of the idea that Galician literary citizenship is language specific, in other words, that to be a member of the national literature, writers have to write in Galician. It does so by focusing on one of the most neglected periods in Galician and Spanish Studies (1939–1965). Chapter one, 'Going Public: The Adventure of Galician Publishing, 1939–1965', presents the first ever account of the publishing world in the studied period. Chapter two, 'From Region to Nation: Galician Literary Studies', argues that the main battleground in the definition of Galician literary citizenship was the field of Galician literary studies, where the concept of literary citizenship was naturalised and then institutionalised. Chapter three, 'Negotiating Identities', explores writers' language choices, paying special attention to those who wished to earn a language-specific Galician literary citizenship. Apart from native and exophonic writers, the chapter addresses writers who did so through translation. Chapter four, 'No Man's Land: Female Writing and Language', argues that female writers had a double-edged experience in the literary field. The patriarchal literary institutions were interested in their symbolic capital but they exercised firm control over them. The conclusion, 'A New raison d'être for Galician Literary Studies', summarises the main argument put forward by this thesis, that to understand fully the development of Galician literary citizenship, literature must be studied outside the national framework.
