SUMMARY:El poder visual de las 2000 nuevas palabras del español
DESCRIPTION:Los más de 2000 vocablos incorporados al Diccionario de la lengua española expanden nuestro imaginario visual y simbólico. Las palabras no solo nombran el mundo\, sino que también lo construyen visualmente. El libro Las 2000 nuevas palabras del español (según los académicos de la lengua) (Madrid\, 2025) no solo documenta esta transformación\, sino que invita a reflexionar sobre el poder de las palabras para encuadrar\, iluminar y redefinir nuestra fotografía / percepción del mundo. Te invitamos a descubrirlas y a sumergirte en este diálogo entre lengua e imagen. \nGelsys García Lorenzo es doctora en Filología Hispánica por la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (2016). Tiene un máster en ELE por la UCM (2015) y otro máster por la Universidad Francisco de Vitoria (2017). Se desempeña desde 2022 como Lecturer en la Universidad de California en Los Ángeles (UCLA). Ha publicado múltiples volúmenes de linguística y de poesía y la antología teatral Anuncia Freud a María. Cartografía bíblica del teatro cubano (1835-2015).
