paper corpusSignosTxtLongLines567 - : The general aim of this paper is to describe the evolution of the linguistic expression of mitigation in the management of the family role face during a period of the Spanish social history: from the late nineteenth century to the sixties of the twentieth century . To this end, a corpus study of selected plays of the period is carried out, focusing on the directive speech acts uttered by characters that play family roles. The analysis is carried out following a mixed methodology that provides, on the one hand, the quantification of the frequency of the different linguistic mitigation strategies and the factors with which they are linked; on the other hand, the qualitative analysis allows to connect the behavior of the mitigation procedures with the face needs and the social effects generated.

paper corpusSignosTxtLongLines572 - : The study of mitigation, a complex pragmatic phenomenon, has been prioritized in recent decades. It has been approached through linguistic disciplines related to speech, especially pragmatics and discourse analysis.

This is the main objective of this paper (which complements the research presented in Authors, this volume), which aims to examine the state of the art on sociolinguistic variation in mitigation strategies, especially within the framework of the Project for the Sociolinguistic Study of Spanish in Spain and America (PRESEEA). The present paper includes the theoretical framework and methodology for the sociodialectal study of mitigation and summarises the main data obtained from a comparison of mitigation in five urban geographic communities: Madrid, Valencia, Las Palmas, Santiago (Chile ), and Puebla (Mexico). The comparison addresses the frequency of mitigation, its
