Lugar y fecha del amor

Abstract

The constitutive features of love letters exchanged among three different groups of young people are presented here from the point of view of discourse analysis. The letters written by a social group which has regular access to internet are submitted to comparison to those written by young people of semi-urban origin and to those that belong to the huichol ethnic people. We intend to approach to “literacy” mediated by technology and “literacy” among users of different communicative means.

A partir de un análisis discursivo de las cartas de amor escritas por tres grupos de jóvenes, se presentan los distintos rasgos constitutivos de este género. Se comparan las cartas de amor de un grupo social que escribe en Internet, con las cartas que escriben jóvenes semiurbanos y jóvenes indígenas huicholes. Se busca aproximarse a “los escribibles” desde las tecnologías y “los escribibles” desde los usuarios de las distintas formas comunicativas.
