This article assumes Glottopolitics as the study of the interventions in the space of language, which participate in the replication or transformation of societies. Just as these interventions depend on social processes, they also influence them from certain positions, which this analysis aims at identifying. Linguistic instruments, which regulate these practices, are considered glottopolitical gestures, and that is the reason why the conditions under which they are produced and circulate should be investigated. Within this framework and with special reference to grammars and rhetorics, this paper focuses on theoretical aspects such as the relationship between Glottopolitics and Linguistic Historiography, the temporalities which may be identified in the analysis and the spaces considered, the importance of intertext for interpretation, the social function of normative devices, and the construction of subjectivities, as well as on methodological aspects, such as the construction of series, the contrastive analysis of texts and reformulation.
