Researching Northern English PDF
Edited by Hickey Raymond Hickey
Part of the Varieties of English Around the World series
Description
Northern English has become the focus of intensive research in the past decade or so, following on a series of dedicated conferences.
The present book brings together leading-edge contributions on various aspects of language use, variation and change in the North of England.
The volume covers the history of English in this area as well as providing incisive studies of both the varieties of English spoken in cities and in larger parts of the area.
In addition, the collection contains a number of interface studies, e.g. concerned with the borders of the North of England, both to Scotland and the South of England or dealing with second-language varieties of Northern English or with additional issues, such as enregisterment.
All these contributions help to draw a comprehensive picture of this key area of the English-speaking world and point the way forward for future research.
