Descrição
Resumo:This article explores the rise of mining activity and formal education as the promoting factors of a new economy and lifestyle of the Spanish speakers (SS) transplanted to New Spain. Samples of sibilant variants and direct object pronouns are extrapolated from 16th century documents (1520-1598). In both cases alternate variations indicate that neither seseo nor leísmo became firmly rooted in this century. Moderate seseo contended with traditional variants, and whereas leísmo seemed to prevail, it also alternated with pro-etymological forms. Both features are examined in the milieu of diversity and koineization generated by the coexistence of SS coming from varied peninsular regions and socio-cultural backgrounds. Social stratification favored the enterprises of SS and preserved their compactness within the economic and educational activities that separated them from less privileged groups, which explains the leísta trends.
