| Summary: | It is a surprising fact that Sociolinguistics has approached the realm of Literature with low intensity. It particularly draws the attention because it is a notoriously social discourse frame and even more if we regard for this discipline ambition for verisimilitude. Starting from this ground, the author of this study proposes a sociolinguistic reading of El último patriarca by connecting the characters' sociolinguistic landmarks with their social fight. The character Manel-Mimoun will try to become an implacable patriarch and his daughter will attempt to be a free woman that conquers a new identity. Through this reading journey a kind of linguistic and literary tourism is triggered. It is like visiting an emotional landscape that frequently will consist of visiting hidden corners of our sentimental and historical geography, spaces that are forgotten on purpose. |
