This paper presents an analisys of time conceptualizations in Mapuche language. The purpose of this research is to contrast the model that proposes the universal existence of related schemata for time conceptualization, usually simplified into one single schema, called “spatialization” of time. In order to do so, we use textual and ethnographical methods. On the one hand, we analise expressions of two texts from the beggining of 20th century, where temporal expressions in Mapuche language and their conceptual structures are identified. On the other hand, we conducted semi-structured interviews with eleven Mapuche adults in the ethnic comunnity of Llaguepulli, Región de la Araucanía, Chile. The results show that Mapuche language produces spatialized expressions of time, that are consistent with the conceptual mapping time events are things in space (Núñez 1999), usually in relation to event-based time intervals (Sinha et al. 2011). However, we also note the centrality of a schema merely related to the notion of transience (Evans 2013), endorsing the data that support that time experience is inherently temporal rather than spatial. In conclusion, we claim that the best way to understand time conceptualizations in Mapuche language is as a diverse phenomenon, through al least five conceptual schemata, in some of which it is still possible to recognize specific sub-schemata.Referências
