RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Las lecturas actuales de la comunicación literaria en el espacio medieval A1 Figueroa, Antón K1 teoría K1 análisis y crítica literaria AB This article defends the theory that current perspectives about the past are actually conditionedby several types of logics, specially those deriving from social and semiotic disciplines.Following Bourdieu’s conception of social field, we try to show how our present-daymisreadings of medieval texts are subjected to the particular field whereby readers operate,thus providing texts with new or unexpected functions. From the point of view of sociallogics, there are two main views of «the medieval» from which to focus our attention. Thefirst one is that of national identities (putting the pragmatic use at the service of some doxaor social heterodoxy as an aspect of social and cultural cohesion). The second one is theacademic domain, where two other fields may be discerned: that of restricted and that oflarge production. From a semiotic standpoint, we attemp to show the way the text mayestablish new communicative relationships and is endowed with supplementary fictionalor artistic power. This would happen whenever there is a change in the social and culturalcontexts sender and receiver share. PB Universidad de La Laguna.
