NOMBRAR EL CUERPO EN LOS VOCABULARIOS COLONIALES PARA EL MAPUDUNGUN DE CHILE (SS. XVII-XVIII). (Spanish)

This article reviews and analyses the neologistic strategies developed in the three colonial Chilean dictionaries of Mapudungun concerning sexuality and the body/soul dyad. The dictionaries are understood as artefacts which employed interventionist strategies with regard to the native language. These strategies responded to the objectives of evangelisation and the consequent disciplining of bodies. The bilingual dictionaries are viewed as discursive social practices and we remark their historicity, heteroglossia and argumentative capacity, which model and distinguish their intervention strategies from the discursive network related to a specific historical moment.

El presente artículo revisa y analiza las estrategias neologizantes desplegadas en torno a la sexualidad y la díada cuerpo/alma, en los tres diccionarios coloniales para el mapudungun de Chile, entendiéndolos como artefactos que despliegan estrategias intervencionistas sobre la lengua indígena, en concordancia con el objetivo de la evangelización y el consecuente disciplinamiento de los cuerpos. Los diccionarios bilingües estudiados son abordados como prácticas sociales discursivas, por lo que presentan los rasgos de historicidad, heteroglosia y argumentatividad, que modulan y diferencian sus estrategias de intervención a partir de la red de discursos en que se inscribe su momento histórico.
