AB  - This doctoral thesis contributes to the investigation referring to temporal and aspectual uses of the two Spanish past tenses pretérito perfecto simple and pretérito perfecto compuesto in the spoken varieties of the early colonial period of Hispanoamerica (16th and 17th centuries). The main subject of research deals with the question of how the simple (perfecto simple) and compound past (perfecto compuesto) differ in their uses and which temporal and aspectual characteristics they express. To this purpose, private documents of the corpus CORDIAM (Corpus Diacrónico y Diatópico del Español de América) have been analyzed, particularly concentrating on the importance of an approximation of the early colonial period’s spoken language. This diaphasic variety has not been investigated before due to the lack of sources. The most important results of the analysis are the following: The simple and the compound past form are not quantitatively balanced (unequivocal dominance of the perfecto simple). The perfecto simple comprises a wider scale of uses: it expresses both temporal and aspectual actions, whilst the perfecto compuesto is mostly limited to aspectual characteristics (most important aspects: resultative, continuative, durative, reiterative). For the first time, it is possible to draw conclusions concerning the use of spoken Spanish of both past tenses in the whole area of Hispanoamérica during a colonial period (characteristics of the spoken language: use of verbal periphrasis, expression of emotions).
