Abstract

"Linguistic historiography and visibility of rhetoric". Historiography or the theory of writing of history states that the historical discourse is an ideological elaboration, a representation of the real. It has as the main purpose to know how to elaborate the representation of history. Our article deals with the rhetoric representation in the divulgative historiographical linguistics. To this aim we go over the processing in sixteen handbooks on history of linguistics. The scope of this work is to know the visibility of rhetoric in the historical discourse; what kind of relationship is kept with linguistics and what are the reasons for that. Therefore, we make a distinction between restricted and integrative historiography, thus we record the works in which rhetoric remains invisible and those in which appears, though shown under a crystal ceiling or epistemologic paradigm that prevent from being really included in the history of linguistics. In spite of that, the historicity of rhetorics and its identification as a background of the matters referred to the analysis of discourse are convincing reasons to review the scarce visibility of rhetoric.
