dc.description.abstract | The proposed talk deals with aspects of epistemic devices in Modern English history texts written between 1700-1900. Stance is a complex concept that includes a large variety of linguistic devices indicating the author's perspective with respect to a given proposition. The expression of stancetaking has been extensively studied in contemporary writings, especially in the scientific register. There is, however, an important gap in the study of stancetaking devices from a historical perspective (cf. Alonso-Almeida & Mele-Marrero, 2014). This paucity of studies is important for the field of historical linguistics, as it has been shown that perspectivisation is a critical factor in grammaticalization processes and language change, in general. Our main objective is to analyse stance devices in the Corpus of History English Texts (CHET) using corpus tools. Analysis of findings will be categorised and described following the methodological framework in Marín Arrese (2009, 2015). Thus, we shall divide samples according to this scheme into epistemic modals and evidentials in order to see how writers of the period either hedged their claims for different pragmatic reasons, or showed their involvement in the conceptualization process as a way to show degrees of responsibility for them. This initial study wants to offer preliminary conclusions from a gender perspective, as CHET contains texts written by male and female authors. These conclusions will, then, report on the frequency and the pragmatics of modal and evidential devices in the textual genres included in CHET, say textbooks and articles, among others, as well as on the preferred forms in male- or female-authored discourse. | - |
