- Abstract
Juan Ángel de Zumaran is a teacher and interpreter of languages from the 17th century. It is known that he lived in Salzburg, Munich, Ingolstadt and Vienna, where he worked and published four textbooks and two literary translations. In this paper, I would like to focus on the first ones and more specifically on the Spanish and German dialogues they contain. This study is meant to be a first approach to theses dialogues through the study of the third one, entitled "En el qual se descriue vna comida, con muchos lindos discursos mientras se come/ Vonn Beschreibung der Mahlzeit/ mit vilen andern Reden vnd schónen Discursen vnder dem Essen" (Zumaran 1634: 292-293). It will allow me to illustrate and assess the role played by these linguistic elements in the didactic work as a whole of this author. With this in mind, I will firstly introduce Zumaran's teaching programme and secondly contextualize his Spanish and German dialogues and specifically the third one in the context of his different textbooks. Thus, I will present an initial study of these dialogues and determine some questions that have to do with their total number and its location in the books. I will move then on to the analysis of the third one, in order to illustrate the teaching and translation work carried out by this nobleman from Cantabria. This article, that focuses on dialogues in the area of foreign language teaching, allows us to understand the functionality of the sections where these appear in Zumaran's language textbooks, which are highly interesting. It constitutes an important novelty in the scene of historiographical studies dealing with Spanish and German.
