Address in Portuguese and Spanish
The volume provides the first systematic comparative approach to the history of forms of address in Portuguese and Spanish, in their European and American varieties. Both languages share a common history—e.g., the personal union of Philipp II of Spain and Philipp I of Portugal; the parallel colonization of the Americas by Portugal and Spain; the long-term transformation from a feudal to a democratic system—in which crucial moments in the diachrony of address took place. To give one example, empirical data show that the puzzling late spread of Sp. usted ‘you (formal, polite)’ and Pt. você ‘you’ across America can be explained for both languages by the role of the political and military colonial administration. To explore these new insights, the volume relies on an innovative methodology, as it links traditional downstream diachrony with upstream diachronic reconstruction based on synchronic variation. Including theoretical reflections as well as fine-grained empirical studies, it brings together the most relevant authors in the field.

Mulheres, Linguagem e Poder
Este livro é uma contribuição da Linguística, de forma geral, e da Sociolinguística, de forma específica, para o debate acadêmico e político sobre a relação entre a construção de identidades de gênero e usos linguísticos, com foco no "feminino". A obra propõe uma ampla revisão teórica e reflexiva sobre o tema a partir do enfoque da Sociolinguística variacionista, e apresenta uma série de estudos contemporâneos que exploram a relação entre usos linguísticos e gênero. Tais pesquisas ora problematizam estereótipos sobre o papel das mulheres nos processos de variação e mudança, ora propõem novos olhares teóricos e metodológicos para se explicar a relação entre as mulheres e as línguas.
