Description:
Even before Labov's celebrated study of the Lower East Side (The Social Stratification of English in New York City) was published in 1966, he had begun research on African American Vernacular English (AAVE) in Harlem. His work there initiated a life‐long study of the structural features, verbal artistry and language use of the African American speech community. It took him to other cities (e.g. Philadelphia) and states (e.g. California, Georgia, South Carolina), and led him to grapple with questions about how linguistics could be used to improve the teaching of reading to speakers of vernacular Englishes and to enhance the life chances of people of color. In this article, I review Labov's contributions to each of these issues, and to diachronic issues about the development of AAVE. Overall, this research considerably enriched his overall contribution to theoretical, methodological and applied aspects of sociolinguistics and the study of linguistic variation and change. Incluso antes de la publicación en 1966 del célebre estudio de Labov sobre el Lower East Side (SSENYC, por sus siglas en inglés), éste ya había comenzado a estudiar el inglés vernáculo afroamericano (AAVE, por sus siglas en inglés) en Harlem. Su trabajo allí dio inicio a un estudio de por vida sobre las características estructurales, destreza verbal, y uso del lenguaje por parte de la comunidad lingüística afroamericana. Lo llevó a otras ciudades (p. ej. Filadelfia) y estados (p. ej. California, Georgia, Carolina del Sur), y lo condujo a lidiar con preguntas sobre cómo la lingüística puede ser utilizada para mejorar la enseñanza de la lectura para hablantes de distintas variantes vernaculares del inglés, y mejorar las expectativas de vida para individuos pertenecientes a minorías étnicas y raciales. En este artículo, hago una revisión de las contribuciones de Labov en cada uno de estos temas y asuntos diacrónicos sobre el desarrollo del AAVE. En general, esta investigación sirve para enriquecer considerablemente la totalidad de su contribución a los aspectos teóricos, metodológicos y prácticos en el área sociolingüística, y el estudio sobre los cambios y la variación lingüística.
