Abstract
Numerous Portuguese texts and paratexts from the era of the dual monarchy (1580-1640) are institutional by eulogies of the Lusitanian language that fulfill the task of defending its prestige over Spanish. Between the end of the 18th century and the first half of the 19th century, when the production of translations, grammars, dictionaries and other glottodidactic tools of various natures increased, the memory of the ancient praises was relied upon for partially pedagogical purposes (justifying the study of Portuguese as a foreign language), politico-cultural (defending the dignity of Portuguese within the neo-Latin stock; making space for the Lusitanian literary tradition in the European cultural space), commercial (in the context of the modern publishing industry, creating a market for Lusophone texts and manuals).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
