The aim of this paper is to analyze the role developed by the nationalist nurses as health professionals on the warlike conflict in 1936-1939. On this context we can identify the type of training that nurses recived while the Civil War, the assigments and obligations relationed with theirs assistance works, their professional worries, the risk that this work envolves and the recognition of this. Their active participation transformed the essential sanitary personal, doing an important place on this, with big relevance and low studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Diachronic research has often made use of metalinguistic remarks made by "prestigious" speakers as a way to reconstruct past stages of a given language. The question arises as to what point these remarks can be considered objective. This issue is addressed here by paying attention to the time span between 1940 and 1960 and to Emilio Lorenzo's remarks about the evolution of Sp. o sea. Lorenzo's intuitions can be (dis)confirmed by checking them against the rae CORDE corpus. Building on the conclusions extracted from o sea, the last part of this paper establishes some methodological remarks regarding the diachronic study of the 20th century. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
