Abstract

Cecilia Valdes is arguably the most important novel of 19th century Cuba. Originally published in New York City in 1882, Cirilo Villaverde's novel has fascinated readers inside and outside Cuba since the late 19th century. In this new English translation, a vast landscape emerges of the moral, political, and sexual depravity caused by slavery and colonialism. Set in the Havana of the 1830s, the novel introduces us to Cecilia, a beautiful light-skinned mulatta, who is being pursued by the son of a Spanish slave trader, named Leonardo. Unbeknownst to the two, they are the children of the same fa

Abstract

Cuba: realidades e imaginarios lingüísticos profundiza en las creencias, percepciones y actitudes de los hablantes cubanos sobre la lengua española. Estas se van tejiendo, por un lado, con postulados lingüísticos de diferentes disciplinas y, por otro, con el contexto histórico, político y social particular de la Cuba de las últimas décadas. Los datos en los que se basa el análisis se han tomado de los cuestionarios aplicados en la capital cubana como parte del proyecto panhispánico Linguistic Identity and Attitudes in Spanish-Speaking Latin America (Proyecto LIAS) y de la tesis doctoral "Actitudes lingüísticas en el Caribe insular hispánico". De ellos se derivan reflexiones encaminadas a descifrar y legitimar la subjetividad lingüística de los cubanos, comprender sus motivaciones y apuntar sus implicaciones en cuestiones de lengua e identidad.
