Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contributions to the History of the Durham Dialects: An Orthographical Investigation The present work was begun some ten years ago, and in 1913 a preliminary sketch of the subject was presented as an examination essay. Work on the enlarging and completion of this has been repeatedly interrupted by circumstances beyond my control. The protracted period of preparation and the long interruptions have caused in consistencies both in the general treatment of the material at hand and in various accessories, which latter, I hope, will be deemed to be of minor importance. It gives me great pleasure to express my respectful and sincere thanks to my teacher in English, Professor E. Ekwall, at whose suggestion this piece of research was undertaken and who has kindly encouraged me and given me much valuable advice, especially during the earlier stages of my work. My gratitude is further due to my friend. Dr. E. O. Holmqvist, of Stockholm, for bringing to my knowledge some recent publications bearing on the subject of my researches. I have also to acknowledge my obligation to Mr. F. J. Fielden, M. A., Lektor at the University of Lund, who has revised my manuscript from the point of view of style.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where de yea belang?brings together the distinctive vocabulary of the North East dialect. "Abackabeyont, bait-poke, cracket, drucken, etten, fettle, guissie pigs, lonnin, marra, nyen, plote, queen-cat, reckling, skinch, tew, upcast, vine, willok, yem, zookers!" If you enjoy finding out about dialect words – how and where and when they were used – and where they came from – this is the best guide to help you explore the world of North East dialect. Until the 20th century, dialect was a marker of economic, social and cultural change. We know that the North East maritime connections with the Dutch led to the introduction of many 'new' words. The Scottish influence of the keelmen (fisherman) on the Tyne and their effect on local language was much more radical. Although the Tyneside dialect and identity and this way of speaking is fast waning, the popularity of discovering this language and dialect shows there is still a great interest in the languages and dialect of the past. The late Bill Griffiths (1948–2007)was an extraordinary writer and poet: radical, experimental and scholarly, but also had a great sense of humour. He was a wonderful champion of the North East, its people and heritage. Born in Middlesex, he read history before graduating in 1969. Bill ran his own independent press and published political pamphlets and essays on the arts and poetry. After gaining a PhD in Old English he fled London and settled in Seaham where he embraced the northern way of life. 'He was also a scholar of Old English and dialect who know how to make his work accessible. Private and uncompetitive, he was at least these things: poet, archivist, scholar, translator, prison-rights campaigner, pianist, historian, curator, performer, editor, short-story writer, essayist, teacher, book-maker and lyricist. The Saturday before he died, Bill discharged himself from hospital to host the Dialect Day at the Morden Tower in Newcastle upon Tyne. He died as he lived: cataloguing, awarding Best Dialect prizes, opera on his radio, the poetry paramount.' Obituary, The Independent, 20 September 2007.

This book was released on 1974-08-29 with total page 1322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than fifty specialists have contributed to this new edition of volume 1 of The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
