MEDINA MORALES, FRANCISCA. Problemas metodológicos de la sociolingüística histórica[ [title language=en]Methodological problems of historical sociolinguistics. Forma funcion, Santaf, de Bogot, D.C. [online]. 2005, n.18, pp.115-137. ISSN 0120-338X.

The author of this study endeavours to lay out the principal problems we encounter when we analyze a text or a corpus of historical texts from a sociolinguistic point of view. The mentioned problems are derived from the nature of the object of analysis itself and urgently force the adaptation of the method of sociolinguistic field analysis to the newly established necessities. With this purpose we respond to the interrogative regarding historical sociolinguistics: Are we dealing with a new discipline or simply with a diachronic focus of sociolinguistics? And if the latter is true, can we talk of one unique method of interpretative data analysis or of two different methods?

Palavras-chave : sociolingüística histórica; metodología; variacionismo; cambio lingüístico; novela picaresca.
