La Revolución Cultural en EE.UU.
My late mother was in Peking when student mobs smashed statues. She told me about the demented atmosphere of those days, the way respectable people cowered before rioters. I could never quite picture it. Until now. pic.twitter.com/UQiz3ihM6Y— Daniel Hannan (@DanielJHannan) July 4, 2020
Los Jóvenes Guardias Rojos, o Negros, de hoy en día, los Mao-Maos los podríamos llamar, se vuelven incluso contra las grandes figuras de la ilustración de izquierdas al considerarlos revisionistas reaccionarios. Aquí una lista de Ofendiditos del campo de la lingüística exigiendo a la Sociedad Lingüística de America la expulsión y humillación pública de Steven Pinker, un académico que sin duda vale más que todos ellos juntos:
A, Pranav, et al. "(…open
letter [to the Linguistics Society of America] by members of the Linguistics
Community calling from both our list of distinguished academic fellows and our
list of media experts.." Google Docs

Les encantaría que Pinker olisquease los vientos, se subiese al carro con ellos, y entonase la Palinodia Autocrítica.

100 intelectuales de izquierdas se desmarcan del espíritu persecutorio: pero tienen que dejar primero su credenciales antitrumpistas.

Moreno Cabrera, imperiófobo
Juan Carlos Moreno Cabrera, catedrático de la Autónoma de Madrid, es quizá el más apreciado lingüista español hoy en día. Lo es en parte gracias a sus conocimientos, pero sobre todo quizá gracias a sus propuestas de humillar el español, lengua imperial y mundial, frente a las lenguas nativas y las lenguas periféricas españolas, a las que considera igual de útiles o importantes que el español. Para los lingüistas como Moreno Cabrera, que hacen gala de una ecuanimidad buenista, el dicho "todas las lenguas son iguales" es una especie de lema o credo. Es éste un ejemplo acabado de la ideología autonomista-nacionalista de hoy, contra el centralismo, "catolicismo" e internacionalismo que simboliza y encarna el español. Al que Moreno Cabrera por supuesto llamará castellano—es la piedra de toque ésta, la reducción del español a "castellano". Dos términos que eran sinónimos hasta que dejaron de serlo para convertirse en distintivos de polarización política.
Esta ideología desdeñosa de lo español y del español, y sumisa y aduladora con los nacionalismos e indigenismos, es un caso acabado de lo que Mª Elvira Roca Barea llama imperiofobia, traducida hoy en día en hispanofobia. Una actitud que también se ve criticada en las obras des Jesús Laínz, Pedro Insua, Iván Vélez y otras personas asociadas a la escuela de filosofía de Oviedo de Gustavo Bueno.
Fue Bueno el filósofo que más potentemente ha integrado la significación del imperialismo globalista y su imbricación con el concepto de lo español, y del español por tanto—una fuerza que pone en su sitio de segunda fila a los papanatismos localistas. Que hoy gozan de tanto predicamento. Moreno Cabrera seguro que es un lingüista muy apreciado en toda el ala de sincretismos disolventes de España que hoy ha aupado a Pedro Sánchez a su podio inestable—desde los Bildus hasta los Torras, PNVs, PSOEs y Podemismos y Marejadas varias. Todos antiimperialistas— y antifascistas, que la duda ofende.
Escuchen a este tipo llamado Moreno Cabrera que dice que la lengua española es un fenómeno inútil y lamentable,— Hermann Tertsch (@hermanntertsch) 8 de agosto de 2018
Catedrático en la Autónoma. Estas cosas explican muchos de los desvaríos de los jóvenes que se salen enfermos de las facultades. https://t.co/zcmBiL5vZE

Muere Halliday
Dear AEDEAN members:
Michael Halliday specialized in Chinese Linguistics and English Linguistics and did research on discourse analysis, intonation and grammar, among other fields, but he changed the study of Linguistics with the development of the theory of language known as Systemic Functional Linguistics, according to which language is a social semiotic system. Michael Halliday is well-known for the publication of An Introduction to Functional Grammar (1985), which has become a reference book of Linguistics. All his work has had a significant impact on sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, and language teaching and learning.
Cristina Suárez-Gómez, on behalf of the Executive Board
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Prof. M.A.K Halliday. Michael Halliday died at the age of 93 on 15th April 2018 at the Uniting Wesley Heights Nursing Home in Manly, Sydney, Australia. He was at UCL from 1963 and 1971, first as the Director of the Communication Research Centre (1963-1965) and then as a Professor of Linguistics (1965-1971). After short stays in the US and Britain, he moved to Australia, where he founded the Department of Linguistics at the University of Sydney in 1976 and retired there in 1987.

Retropost #1572 (19 de abril de 2007): Robert de Beaugrande
Hoy me ha mandado para la bibliografía un aviso de actualizaciones en su sitio web. Allí se encuentran, por ejemplo, cosas como Linguistic Theory: The Discourse of Fundamental Works - A Friendly Grammar of English - Text Linguistics at the Millennium - "Critical Discourse Analysis and the New Patriotism" - A Survey of Contemporary Theorists - o A New Introduction to the Study of Text and Discourse, también en español: Nueva introducción básica al estudio del texto y del discurso. Y más y más escritos sobre semiótica, educación, política lingüística, sobre lingüística funcional y aplicada, sobre estudios de corpus, sobre manías y prejuicios del mundillo académico y editorial, polémicas con Chomsky o con Widdowson...
Su planteamiento: "If I advocate 'freedom of access to knowledge and society', I cannot reach out by means of expensive or hard-to-find books". Yo es que a este hombre lo voy a coger de role-model; cualquier día me compro una chaqueta blanca. Una lástima, supongo, es que sus publicaciones han dejado repentinamente de tener calidad al pasar al estado de samizdat. Porque la calidad la otorga, como todo el mundo sabe, el editor, no el autor.
¡Enhorabuena, Dr. Beaugrande, y gracias! A ver si cunde el ejemplo. No creo.

Farewell to Robert de Beaugrande
Farewell to Robert de Beaugrande en Google Sidewiki:
The author of this page, Robert de Beaugrande, died in 2008. The following obituary was published in the Linguist List (30 June 2008):
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I am sorry to pass on the news of the death several days ago of Robert deBeaugrande, a good friend and an outstanding linguist who contributed much to the inception of text and discourse analysis and to critical discourse linguistics.
Robert helped to develop what was known at one time as the Vienna School of Textlinguistik, and also to some early work on cognitive linguistics. In his later work, he contributed to what we now call Critical Discourse Analysis, and wrote many insightful and incisive analyses of politically charged texts and issues, combining methods of functional linguistics with the emerging techniques of computer-based corpus analysis.
Robert had a flamboyant personal style and a strong commitment to progressive politics. He worked in and supported students in several developing African nations, in Asia, the mid-East, and Brazil, as well as having a prestigious appointment for several years at the University of Vienna.
In semi-retirement, he devoted himself to producing a website with full text of many of his classic and newer publications, making it a treasure house of information especially for those around the world who cannot afford the exorbitant prices of academic books today.
The site is at:

Sadly,

http://listserv.linguistlist.org/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0806E&L=linguist&P=R1133
It seems that Robert de Beaugrande went through personal hardship and anguish in his late years. It is unfortunate that such a remarkable scholar should disappear in silence after such outstanding academic work, activity and influence. His works remain: they have been influential on many people, and the author's generosity in making them available free of charge on the web can only be praised. Robert de Beaugrande was a pioneer in many ways, and also in promoting this use of the Internet to counteract some sclerotic trends in academic publishing.
Descanse en paz. Un saludo, Robert, through the time-warp of language—and thanks.

MY biding drive in life imprinted mint beginnings
To gear the multi-tiered machinery of meaning;
Still I have grasped but hasps of facts I mapped,
Witting flinted wisdom with erosion’s slowness.
