Autenticidad enunciativa y sociosemántica del pop-rock en español

Résumé

From a sociological perspective, the aesthetic value of authenticity is considered a key feature musicians must have in order to enter the pop-rock canon (Val, Noya & Pérez-Colman 2014; Appen & Doehring 2006). The present paper aims to identify and analyse different strategies employed to suggest authenticity regarding enunciation (Laferl 2005) and social semiotics (Halliday 1978) in pop-rock song lyrics. To this end, a 120.000-word corpus of 722 songs in Spanish was compiled and analysed in terms of frequencies, participants, key words and practice patterns.
