2019
espanolEsta investigacion explora la historia americana del originalmente honorifico e iberico su merced, hoy empleado por millones de hablantes del espanol en America. El analisis de 983 concordancias de su merced extraidas de corpus de datos linguisticos de los siglos XVI al XIX describe su sintaxis, pone en relacion tradiciones discursivas y cambio linguistico y muestra que su merced ha tenido dos vias de desarrollo en America a partir de dos practicas comunicativas bien diferenciadas: la institucional y la interpersonal. En la primera, su merced se ha extinguido; en la segunda, su uso permite advertir el nexo con los empleos actuales. EnglishThis research explores the history of the originally Iberian honorific title su merced, currently used by millions of Spanish speakers in the Americas. The paper summarises the results of an analysis of 983 occurrences extracted from a corpus of documents written in the Americas between the 16th and the 19th centuries. The study connects discursive traditions with linguistic change and describes the syntax of su merced. It shows that su merced had two parallel developments in two clearly differentiated communicative practices: in the institutional and the interpersonal spheres. In the institutional sphere su merced has disappeared, while in the interpersonal sphere, it is linked to current usage.
