Los estudios de dialectología en el Centro de Estudios Históricos. La realización del Atlas Lingüístico de la Península Ibérica

Abstract

José Ignacio PÉREZ PASCUAL: Dialectology Studies in the Centro de Estudios Históricos. The Making of the Atlas Lingüístico de la Península Ibérica. At the Centro de Estudios Históricos, and under the responsibility of Tomás Navarro Tomás, the Atlas Lingüístico de la Península Ibérica was designed based on the models elaborated in Europe at the beginning of the 20th century. In this article, we will take a look into this ambitious scientific project, examining the complex process of preparation and realization of the surveys by part of a group of promising specialists in the different linguistic domains of the peninsula, who had trained to do so along with Navarro. Between 1931 and 1936 most of the points set out by ALPI were covered, but the conclusions were delayed various decades because of the Civil War.
