Vanderci de Andrade Aguilera
Abstract
This article presents a historical panorama of dialectology and geolinguistics in Brazil and contains five sections: (1) an introduction offering an overview of the methods used in dialectology, such as vocabularies, monographs, and atlases; (2) the phases of the history of dialectology in Brazil, which initiated in 1826 and developed for almost two centuries culminating in the publication of the Atlas Linguístico do Brasil in 2014; (3) the regional history of geolinguistics in Brazil and its specific centers of study; (4) a discussion of some phonetic and lexical aspects registered in the Atlas linguístico do Brasil, comparing them to the proposal of the classical dialectical division by Nascentes (1953) and, finally, (5) some concluding remarks.
