Abstract:

This book analyses a set of rarely described regional Spanish varieties spoken
throughout much of the northern Peruvian Andes (Cajamarca, La Libertad and
Ancash) from a sociohistorical and dialectological perspective. What are the
main dialectological features of these varieties? Are these features the same
ones that shape southern Andean Spanish, a variety formed mainly through
contact with Quechua and Aymara? Which of these features are distinctly
outcomes of contact with Culle, the main substrate language of the region,
which was mentioned in colonial and postcolonial documents but is now extinct?
How are these features linked to the postcolonial history of the region,
marked by the Catholic evangelization enterprise and an «economy of
plundering» based on agriculture, weaving and mining? Thorough consideration
of these matters allows the author to critically assess the standard notion in
Hispanic linguistics that considers Andean Spanish as a single, homogeneous
code. The study sheds new light on how the regional varieties of Spanish in
America were shaped over time and proposes ways of delving into language
history in postcolonial contexts, where a written European language has been
superimposed on a set of native codes previously lacking written traditions.
