    Los diálogos de ficción son un vehículo de caracterización mediante el que los autores transmiten información a sus lectores relativa a cuestiones básicas, tales como la procedencia social o económica de los personajes y, también, las relaciones interpersonales en las que interactúan factores como el estatus, la edad o el sexo del interviniente. El propósito de este estudio es mostrar cómo las distinciones sociológicas y de género suscitan diferencias significativas en la interacción discursiva. Con este fin, se han seleccionado diversos pasajes de cuatro novelas victorianas escritas por mujeres que corresponden a diálogos entre personajes femeninos y masculinos con relevantes diferencias de edad o estatus económico y social.

    Fictional dialogues are a vehicle of characterization by means of which the authors provide the readers with information not only concerning basic features such as social or economic backgrounds but, also, about the interpersonal relationships in which factors such as status, age and gender interact. The purpose of this paper is to show how gender and sociological distinctions yield significant differences in discursive interaction. For this purpose, we have selected various text excerpts from four Victorian novels written by women, that correspond to dialogues between male and female characters in which a wide range of features such as age or social and economic status interact.
