After an introduction to conlangs in general, and to Quenya, Klingon, Dothraki and Na’vi specifically, Greenberg’s linguistic universals will be used to test their resemblance to natural languages, and suggest a taxonomy of fictional languages.

2. Gándara Fernández, Leticia. El imaginario lingüístico en la literatura y el cine: del élfico al dothraki .

Degree: 2018, Universidad de Extremadura

URL: http://hdl.handle.net/10662/8277 

La presente tesis doctoral constituye un análisis lingüístico de las principales lenguas artificiales creadas para la literatura y el cine desde mediados del siglo XX hasta la actualidad. Para ello, se ha realizado una selección de varias lenguas presentes en obras literarias y audiovisuales atendiendo a su grado de desarrollo, a su complejidad lingüística y al impacto que han tenido en la cultura popular. Como parte de la literatura, analizamos las creaciones lingüísticas de J. R. R. Tolkien y el láadan de S. Haden Elgin. Con respecto al cine, los sistemas lingüísticos seleccionados son: el klingon, el pársel, el na’vi, el dothraki y las lenguas valyrias. Finalmente, nuestro estudio nos permite observar qué métodos y criterios han utilizado estos inventores de lenguas para elaborar estos sistemas con los que generalmente pretenden conseguir un determinado efecto en función de la cultura a la que se encuentren asociados. Advisors/Committee Members: Galán Rodríguez, Carmen (advisor).

Subjects/Keywords: Lenguas artificiales; Lenguas artísticas; Tolkien, J. R. R. (1892-1973); Artificial languages; Conlangs
