The aim of this dissertation is verifying which cultural connotations of the selected terms are reflected in the phraseological units contained in the corpus and identifying any possible crosscultural and linguistic difference or similitude. Data have been selected from dictionaries and colloquial language and analyzed conducting a qualitative contrastive analysis between English and Spanish. Results seem to demonstrate that the cultural connotations of each kinship term and phraseological units vary according to the language. Furthermore, they call for a deepest a more systematized "linguo-cultural" analysis within the field of phraseology and kinship.

En concreto, se estudiaron dos corpus de lengua real. Por un lado, GloWbE para la lengua inglesa y Corpus del español Web/ Dialects para la española. De los resultados obtenidos se creó una taxonomía con las expresiones encontradas en los corpus siguiendo las teorías de estudios publicados anteriormente para poder así estudiar las posibles implicaciones didácticas y traductológicas que de ellos pudieran derivar

Sole devoted her academic life to the study of Pragmatics, published her successful doctoral dissertation on Parliamentary Question Time as «Cortesía e imagen en el Parlamento británico: Question Time», and contributed insightful articles to national and international conferences on English Linguistics. She was attested a much beloved, welcoming, bright and efficient teacher, able to lead students into the most hidden details of verbal communication. And we all felt admired at her individual charm, delicate grace and unaffected refinement. She left too young, but acquainted of all wisdom. Because Sole lived two parallel lives, incarnated two chronological ages and embodied two kinds of knowledge. Her illness deprived us of further learned and scholarly deep pragmatic findings. She left much unsaid, implicit and untaught. But personally she rubbed shoulders with the wisest and most learned. Basic knowledge, be it human or scientific, is desirably said to be a public commodity, freely-accessed. And Sole socialized her innermost learning; the experience she herself had gained, as she went through her single and unique conflicts, regardless universal, the route maps, preferred trails and prelacies she found most useful to configure her difficult programme of growth and understanding. This way she related her erudition to our lives as individual human beings, to our social and cultural community. She had her soul "intoxicated with love", she could read what "the hand of Death had written on her forehead", she could show "the dawn of hope in her eyes", with its "magic meaning", she had learnt that she would never "be a slave of life", that "Death is a queer time", "unnatural" and "of unduly violence", that "no man is an island", but "part of the main", that "only the gentle are truly strong" and that "attitude is more important than facts". She taught us to "dry our tears and raise our heads as the flowers raise their crowns to greet the dawn", to look "between her bed and the infinite"; she understood that "Death is a Dialogue between The Spirit and the Dust", "Dissolve" says Death-The Spirit "Sir I have another Trust"-. She could appreciate the wisdom of flowers, knowing "to be white when jasmines and velvet when lilies", "¡Cuánto sabe la flor! Sabe el silencio; y teniendo unos labios tan hermosos sabe callar el "¡ay!" y el "no", e ignora la negativa y el sollozo". She claimed that Obituary Estudios Ingleses de la Universidad Complutense 2011, vol. 19 11-12 12 "parting is such sweet sorrow", that she would only "say good night till ... tomorrow". "Her bones tailored to her pains" and her "forehead to her thoughtfulness", she felt unworried about her own substance, lived in her acts: "por esta calle que vamos me han dicho que no hay salida; yo la tengo que encontrar aunque me cueste la vida". With the tip of her fingers, "she played the strings of the world, and made them sing of dawns, triumphs, colours, joys, it was her music". Sole, "alma ausente", she had the noble maturity of knowledge. That is why we will always be seated "en las vagas lindes de su alma". She left the world a better place. This is to have succeeded.

The study of communicative/linguistic strategies is important both from a linguistic perspective /?er se and from the point of view of stylistics and poetics. It helps linguists to achieve a better comprehension of the processes determining the form of a particular text as well as of the general process involved in the communicative activity leading to the creation of any text as such. Those more interested in the stylistic aspect of language can get a better insight into the specific use of the possibilities available to a writer at a certain point of time in order to create a (literary) text able to fulfill a certain goal in a certain context. That is, through the study of communicative or verbal strategies we can learn a lot about the activity effectively carried out by the author of any text, be it literary or not. The study of strategies soon reveals its interdisciplinary character; i.e. as the principles underlying verbal strategies are the same as those implied in any kin...

More precisely, it seeks to identify and describe the composite image of Anglo-Saxon Others as portrayed in ten nineteenth century Spanish history books and to critically discuss the results. Despite Anglo-Saxon England being a marginal issue for nineteenth century Spanish scholarship, it has been proved that existing narratives constitute seminal representations of Anglo-Saxon identity and serve a neatly defined heterogeneous array of political and collective aims1. The present analysis suggests that the portrayal of Anglo-Saxon Others contributes to reinforce the ideological bases on which the Anglo-Saxons themselves are built and reveals the tensions which result from the multiple functions performed by the narratives selected. More in particular, the narratives analysed will be shown to differ according to the degree of detail with which the Anglo-Saxon O...
