@misc{10481/53942, year = {2016}, month = {6}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10481/53942}, abstract = {Direct speech has traditionally lacked the attention devoted to indirect speech in EFL teaching in the Spanish curriculum. The verbatim representation of the speech act being reported seems as a taken-for-granted construction which does not need further analysis. Thanks to a corpus-based approach, though, it is possible to retrieve data that prove otherwise. Reporting verbs will be the element under analysis, since they make it possible to demonstrate that the way in which discourse is projected can be highly interpretative. The analysis will consist of a corpus-based study of more than eighty English Victorian novels (c. 16.8 million words). It will be carried out with WordSmith Tools (Scott, 2013), which allows the retrieval of more than 30,000 verbs.}, abstract = {El estilo directo ha carecido tradicionalmente de la atención que sí ha recibido el estilo indirecto en la enseñanza del inglés como lengua extranjera en España. La cita literal del acto de habla que se representa parece hacer innecesaria su enseñanza en contextos de aprendizaje de una lengua. Gracias a un enfoque de corpus, sin embargo, es posible aglutinar el material suficiente para demostrar que esto no es así. Los verbos de habla serán el objeto de estudio de este trabajo, pues servirán para ratificar que la manera en que se proyecta el discurso es decisiva a la hora de percibirlo. El análisis consistirá en un estudio basado en corpus de más de ochenta novelas victorianas. Se realizará con WordSmith Tools (Scott, 2013), que permite rescatar más de treinta mil verbos de habla para su posterior estudio.}, publisher = {Universidad de Granada}, keywords = {Corpus-based approach}, keywords = {Victorian fiction}, keywords = {Direct speech}, keywords = {Teaching}, keywords = {Reporting verbs}, keywords = {Estudio de corpus}, keywords = {Novela victoriana}, keywords = {Estilo directo}, keywords = {Enseñanza}, keywords = {Verbos de habla}, title = {Nineteenth-Century English Fiction as a Source for Teaching Discourse Presentation Strategies to Spanish EFL Students: A Corpus-Based Approach to Direct Speech Reporting Verbs}, doi = {10.30827/Digibug.53942}, author = {Ruano San Segundo, Pablo}, }
