nationalist  movement  in  the  13th  century  through  the  beginning  of  national  consciousness  (14th) and  its  consolidation  (15th),  we  get  to  the  national  linguistic  con

sciousness  of  the  16th  century

which  considers  the  vernacular  as  a  medium  of  expression.

The fact that French was denied official recognition in 16th century England can be put down to the linguistic pride of the period. This is no longer the mother tongue of any of the inhabitants of the Isles. On the contrary, it will be a sort of complementary knowledge in learning apart from the language of the law.

The defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588  and  the  foundation  of  Jamestown  in  1607  as  symbol  of  the  British  Empire  will  enhance English  pride  based  on  national  achievement. ]]> 2020-11-18 22:54:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gabrielvalenteds/b2cq6pxd344kni41/wish/939175411 gabrielvalenteds https://padlet.com/gabrielvalenteds/b2cq6pxd344kni41/wish/939175412 During the Middle Ages the natural tendency of Latin was to replace vernacular languages and their literatures, but this tendency was little by little cut off by ecclesiastical politics. The Church, which  accepted  and  even  fostered  religious  conflicts  among  culturally  different  peoples  through the  Crusades  was,  in  fact,  promoting  national  wars.  A  feeling  of differentiation and  separate cultural  interests  favours  the  use  of  the  word  nation,  “found  in  the  fourteenth  century  with something  of  a  modern  sense” (Galbraith  1941,  117).  Although  other  terms  of  the  same  lexical field (national, nationalism, nationality) are not traced until much later, the occurrence of the word nation  proves  the  aware ness  of  ethnocultural  differ ent  communities  as  it  was  admitted  in  the Council of Constance 1 (1414) where “the right of each nation to be counted as the equal of every other” (Fishman 1973, 4) called for general acceptance.]]> 2020-11-18 22:54:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gabrielvalenteds/b2cq6pxd344kni41/wish/939175412 gabrielvalenteds https://padlet.com/gabrielvalenteds/b2cq6pxd344kni41/wish/939175414 2020-11-18 22:54:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gabrielvalenteds/b2cq6pxd344kni41/wish/939175414
