Pilar García Mouton (born March 5, 1953) is a Spanish philologist, research professor at the Spanish National Research Council (Spanish: Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, CSIS), specialist in dialectology and linguistic geography and, since 2015, corresponding academic of the RAE.
Daughter of the philologist Valentín García Yebra, for whose legacy she is responsible, García Mouton obtained a doctorate in Romance studies at the Complutense University of Madrid, of which she was also professor for a time. She was a student of Manuel Alvar, with whom she worked on the Atlas Lingüístico de Castilla y León and also did surveys in various countries for the Atlas Lingüístico de Hispanoamérica. She has been an author and coordinator of various geographic linguistics projects: for example, the Atlas lingüístico (y etnográfico) de Castilla - La Mancha (ALECMan), with Francisco Moreno or the coordination of the publication of the Linguistic Atlas of the Iberian Peninsula.
She also co-directs, alongside Isabel Molina Martos, the Atlas dialectal de Madrid, a small-domain linguistic atlas aimed at studying rural sociolects. She collaborates on the teams of the international projects Atlas Linguistique Roman (ALiR) and Atlas Linguarum Europaecode: lat promoted to code: la (ALE).
Another of her lines of investigation has been women's speech, with the publication of various articles and books.
She was director of the Revista de Filología Española (RFE) between 2005 and 2015, and previously had been secretary since 1987. She was also responsible for the collection Biblioteca Románica Hispánica by the publisher Gredos, from 1989 to 2005 and is a member of the editorial board of numerous journals. She has also exercised various managerial roles in the Spanish National Research Council and is a member of various evaluation agencies like the ANEP (Agencia Nacional de Evaluación y Prospectiva).
Public Outreach
García Mouton works on science outreach activities, like Palabras moribundas, a segment of the Radio Nacional de España program No es un día cualquiera which she has hosted since 2007.
In 2015 she co-directed an exposition in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Revista de Filología Española (RFE). García Mouton has affirmed the importance of philology, the continuing relevance of a number of studies published in the RFE decades ago, and the role of the media in preserving linguistic correctness. She also stated that she would fail a university student who frequently makes spelling mistakes. She has said that differences between men's and women's speech are largely social and cultural rather than innate and that an excess of feminine courtesy can devalue women's image. She also questioned the idea that women make more conciliative, communicative managers.
