Abstract
En el marco de la crisis en la que se encuentra España hacia fines del siglo XIX, y de los procesos de conformación y consolidación de los Estados nacionales en América Latina, tiene lugar en Madrid en el año 1892 un acontecimiento político-lingüístico singular: el Congreso Literario Hispanoamericano, convocado para celebrar el IV Centenario del Descubrimiento de América. El presente trabajo se propone analizar las orientaciones político-lingüísticas que recorren el encuentro. Para ello, hemos compuesto un corpus conformado por el programa de temas y una selección de las memorias expuestas. A nuestro entender, los discursos del Congreso se inscriben en una matriz de orientación hispanista que genera un efecto de homogeneidad, de unidad discursiva. Sin embargo, en el interior de esta matriz se delimitan tensiones, posicionamientos, que se orientan a un polo de tendencia marcadamente hispanista o, por el contrario, más americanista.
In the context of the crisis in which Spain is involved towards the end of the 19th century and the processes of conformation and consolidation of the national States in Latin America, takes place in Madrid in 1892 a political-linguistic singular event: the Literary Spanish-American Congress, organized in order to celebrate the 4th Centenary of the Discovery of America. The present work proposes to analyze the political and linguistic orientations which go through the meeting. In that sense, we have shaped a corpus composed by the programme of topics and a selection of the exposed memories. To our mind, the discourses of the Congress are part of a matrix with hispanist orientation which generates an effect of homogeneity, of discursive unity. Nevertheless, inside this matrix there are delimited tensions, positionings, which are orientated to a pole of pronounced hispanist tendency or, on the contrary, more americanist.
