A critical balance of variationist sociolinguistic in São Paulo state and a proposition of a research program

variationist Sociolinguistics, “caipira” dialect, Brazilian Portuguese.Abstract
In this paper, I present a critical balance of variationist Socilinguistics in the state of São Paulo I comment briefly the information about scientific production of this research area in the state of São Paulo and I show that its recent development in the state does not allows yet the composition of a sociolinguistic picture of the Portuguese spoken in the state of São Paulo. I present results of variationist researches undertaken with speech samples from the countryside. The analysis is based on features of “caipira” speech described by Amaral ([1920] 1976) at the beginning of the twentieth century. Then, I propose recognizing a programmatic front of research as available in Amaral (1976 [1920]), whereby it is possible to advance the knowledge of spoken language not only related to varieties of São Paulo, but also related to Brazilian Portuguese.Downloads
