Analyzing the dynamics between theory of mind, speech disorders, and brain rewiring in aphasia
(Springer, 2024) López Soto, María Teresa; Filología Inglesa (Lengua Inglesa); HUM609: Grupo de Lógica, Lenguaje e Información
Much has been discussed about the Theory of Mind (ToM) and language. Some authors suggest that activating one enlightens the other, while others view language merely as a tool for developing the most distinctly human ability known. When it comes to speech and communication disorders, tracing ToM can be challenging since patients lack the tools to demonstrate their cognitive performance. This chapter delves into the biological foundations of ToM (anatomical and neurochemical). It also explores the evolution of ToM and neuroplasticity along our lifespan so that the reader can understand that nothing is static, that our brain engages in an everlasting dynamic relationship to keep us healthy and safe. This understanding has significant implications in how we approach language pathologies and the cognitive decline they might hinder. Additionally, the chapter examines the pragmatic side of language, offering insights into the right hemisphere and its role in emotion and affective communication. It considers the production-perception loop in communication, acknowledging that language and cognition cannot always be solely measured from production or perception alone. Social, cultural, and pathological factors may intervene and disrupt this loop, prompting the need for careful consideration in ToM theories and methods, particularly in the context of language pathologies. All these considerations should not be considered as preliminary or complementary, but central in understanding the implications of language in ToM, what language must really entail, so that the best clinical assessment and intervention is possible for patients with language pathologies. Finally, the chapter blends all these analyses into offering a review of crucial aspects of ToM in patients with aphasia.
Gendered Theory of Mind: A Linguistic and Literary Approach
(Springer, 2024) Marín Conejo, Sergio; López Soto, María Teresa; Filología Inglesa (Lengua Inglesa); Filología Inglesa (Literatura Inglesa y Norteamericana); HUM609: Grupo de Lógica, Lenguaje e Información
In this chapter, we explore the relationship between ToM and gender using linguistic knowledge and literary samples, as both help us to cover the main tool by which people connect: language and stories/discourse. We argue that ToM is not a unitary ability, but rather it is a complex set of mechanisms influenced by gender in a diachronic androcentric socio-cultural context. We conclude that we need to go back to the origin of the sex/gender system as it ultimately underlies a primordial opposition of animacy both linguistically and discursively.
The cognitive construction of dialog: language and mind
(Springer, 2021) López Soto, María Teresa; Filología Inglesa (Lengua Inglesa); HUM609: Grupo de Lógica, Lenguaje e Información
The rapid spread of interdisciplinary methods on the study of language has provoked a massive reconfiguration of the concept of dialog in research. Likewise, computer-based communication and the large data that it provides has completely changed our notion of what language entails: we have moved away from written text to spoken conversation, from a sentence-based approach to large corpora and from monologic to an increasing dialogic view of language. This chapter reviews the human memory system and establishes a connection with some theories in the field of Cognitive Linguistics in order to shed some light in understanding the final purpose of human communication and how it connects our most social nature with knowledge and information across our lifespan. Interactions are described as being dialogic in nature having the ultimate goal for the initiator of the communicative interaction to collect information from the outside, and the recipient of that interaction in the role of instantiating that objective. Dialog is seen as specific (the present time frame determines meaning construction), focused, prominent and dynamic (users alternate roles during dialog from initiator to recipient and viceversa). Communicative interaction (“usage events” according to Cognitive Linguistics) is so important in our lives that it shapes the way the brain is wired and posits some interesting theories on how language usage is constructive per se. The chapter finally draws on the correlation that exists between these usage events (“construals” in Current Discourse Space), the subjects of conceptualization, the objects of conceptualization and cognitive mapping, more in particular Working Memory, as the main engine that allows for repetitive stimulation and Long-Term Memory (Semantic and Episodic Memory) which finally stores complex semantic networks made up of form (phonological load) and meaning (semantic load). These sophisticated cognitive patterns stand for knowledge as we know it and represent permanent structures from which users can retrieve, reshape and extend along life experience.

Pablo de Xérica, traductor subversivo de Walter Scott

Pablo de Xérica (or Jérica) (1781-1841), a liberal Spanish writer and politician, was in exile in France during Ferdinand VII’s absolutist reign and eventually settled there. He rendered into Spanish five of Sir Walter Scott’s novels, published in Bordeaux and Paris between 1831 and 1836, an aspect of his translation career which has hardly been considered by critics. The descriptive analysis of his target texts, found to be indirect translations based on Defauconpret’s French versions, shows that Xérica made himself visible by infusing his own liberal ideology into the texts, through both overt and subtle manipulation techniques. In this respect, Xérica made use of omissions, additions, and substitutions which were intended to subvert the dominant Spanish discourse on religious, political and moral grounds, while he also criticised the conservatives’ strong reaction against Scott’s novels.

On the interpretation of the Spanish 1st person plural pronoun
(John Benjamins, 2022) Jiménez Fernández, Ángel Luis; Tubino-Blanco, Mercedes; Filología Inglesa (Lengua Inglesa); Alboiu, Gabriela; King, Ruth; Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MICINN). España; HUM685: Lexicón Inglés-Español
We explore the connection between the clause left periphery and the referential values of inclusion or exclusion of the addressee associated with Spanish 1st Person Plural pronoun nosotros, otherwise morphologically marked in many world languages. We examine the referential values of nosotros in clauses marked with different topics and foci regarding the inclusive/exclusive interpretation of the pronoun. We observe, contra Posio (2012), that overt nosotros doesn’t always involve exclusivity. The exclusive interpretation of the pronoun is nonetheless required in contexts typically declarative and non-contrastive (i.e., out-of-the-blue, thetic), and its overt use is perceived as odd if the Addressee is intended to be included. In Aboutness-Shift Topic and Given Topic contexts the clusive interpretation of the pronoun is obtained from the immediate context (i.e., whether the Addressee is active). Similarly, contrastive topics or foci include the presence of the Addressee in the immediate context as one of their points of contrast. To account for the influence of the immediate context on the interpretation of the pronominal values of clusivity we propose an analysis based on the projection of a Speech Act Phrase (SAP) (Speas & Tenny 2003) in combination with a Logophoric Center (Bianchi 2003) above the clausal left periphery (CP). In our analysis, the pronoun nosotros has an [Addressee] feature that is valued according to the availability of the Addressee in the left-most left periphery. Our formalization of clusivity assumes that interpretation is read off syntax (Haegeman & Hill 2013).

Simplification in Derivational Morphology in the Lindisfarne Gloss
(De Gruyter, 2016) García García, Luisa; Filología Inglesa (Lengua Inglesa); HUM174: Diacronía y dialectología del Inglés
The language of the English gloss to the Lindisfarne Gospels bears witness to early morphological simplification in the late Northumbrian dialect compared to other Old English varieties. Cases of merger in the nominal inflection have already been widely noted. Morphological syncretism in the area of deriva-tion has attracted less attention, although here too variation with respect to other Old English dialects is to be expected. The aim of this paper is to establish how the language of the Lindisfarne gloss differs from that of other Old English texts concerning the degree of syncretism of the causative jan-formation. To that end, all deverbal jan-pairs (base and derivative) in the gloss have been identified, and the syntactic valency and meaning of each member of the pair have been assessed by studying each attestation individually. The main conclusion reached is that the language of the Lindisfarne gloss does not show more innovative traits than that of other Old English texts in the use of the causative formation. This points to derivational morphology behaving differently from inflectional morphology with respect to morphological loss in Old Northumbrian.
Language Contact Effects on Verb Semantic Classes: Lability in Early English and Old French
(Springer, 2023) García García, Luisa; Ingham, Richard; Filología Inglesa (Lengua Inglesa); Pons-Sanz, Sara María; Sylvester, Louise; HUM174: Diacronía y dialectología del Inglés
Old and Modern English differ sharply in the prevalence of lability, the extent to which verbs alternate between transitive and intransitive frames. Such alternations are often attributed to membership of semantic classes. This study investigates how far verb semantic class membership was a factor conditioning lability in older stages of English, in two semantic areas not displaying lability in PDE, psych verbs, and verbs of the destroy-class. In both classes some expansion took place in the extent of lability. We propose that this occurred under the influence of the corresponding Old French verbs. Lability was present in earlier Old French with some psych verbs and destroy-class verbs, but was declining in the period of maximum French influence on Middle English. Earlier research by the second author argued that this influenced the great expansion of lability in Middle English change of state/position verbs; with these verb classes, unlike with the other two, lability was strongly maintained throughout medieval French. Contact with French strongly influenced English verb lability in the change-of-state/position classes, where Old English had substantial numbers of labile verbs to act as ‘bridgeheads’ for the developing syntactic trend, but was less influential where Old English lacked them, as with psych verbs and destroy-verbs. Lasting contact influence was a composite of factors, influenced by developments in the source language, and also favoured by existing predispositions within the borrowing language.
