Book Synopsis Old English Phonology by : Roger Lass
Download or read book Old English Phonology written by Roger Lass and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1975-06-26 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed study of Old English, taking as its point of departure the 'standard theory' of generative phonology as developed by Chomsky and Halle. Dr Lass and Dr Anderson set out all the main phonological processes of Old English and against their larger historical background (including subsequent developments in the history of English). They propose many fresh solutions to long-standing problems in the history and structure of Old English. The result is an extensive and sophisticated treatment of this subject. An important theory is examined against a well-studied body of linguistic knowledge, and is partly validated and partly revised. The book will be important for all linguistics and historians of English and Indo-European.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Synopsis of Old English Phonology: Being a Systematic Account of Old English Vowels and Consonants and Their Correspondences in the Cognate Languages I have named this little work 'a Synopsis of Old English Phonology.' By the term 'phonology' I mean exactly the same thing as the Germans mean by the term 'lautlehre, ' that is, a systematic account of the sounds of a language as represented by written symbols or letters. The subject of my book is the Vocalism and Consonantism of Old English or anglo-saxon. Its central subject of investigation is the Early West Saxon form of Old English. The work is an attempt to give a systematic account of the correspondences of the West Saxon Vowels and Consonants: in the first place. With Primitive Germanic and pre-germanic sounds; secondly, with the sourids in the principal Old English Dialects; and thirdly (in Part II), with the sounds in Modern English. With the help of the Tables set forth in Part II the student will be enabled in some typical instances to trace the Modern English form of a word through the Old English form, through the Primitive Germanic type, back to the type assumed to have existed - Tin the Urspmeke, ' called in this work Indogermanic.'

Download or read book Old English written by Roger Lass and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-02-25 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old English is a companion to Old English studies and to historical studies of early English in general. It is also an introduction to Indo-European studies in the particular sense in which they underpin the history of English. Professor Roger Lass makes accessible in a linguistically up-to-date and readable form the Indo-European and Germanic background to Old English, as well as what can be reconstructed about the resulting state of Old English itself. His book is a bridge between the more elementary Old English grammars and the major philological grammars and recent interpretations of the Old English data.Old English assumes a basic knowledge of phonetics and phonology, the elements of syntactic and morphological theory, and an introduction to historical linguistics. An extensive glossary gives definitions of the major technical terms used.

Book Synopsis A History of English Phonology by : Charles Jones
Download or read book A History of English Phonology written by Charles Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an attempt to view historical phonological change as an ongoing, recurrent process. The author sees like events occurring at all periods, a phenomenon which he considers is disguised by too great a reliance upon certain characteristics of the scholarly tradition. Thus he argues that those innovations arrived at by speakers of the English language many years ago are not in principle unlike those that can be seen to be happening today. Phonological mutations are, on the whole, not to be regarded as unique, novel, once only events. Speakers appear to present to speech sound materials, a limited set of evaluative and decoding perceptions, together with what would seem to be a finite number of innovation producing stratagems in response to their interpretation. It is stressed that this interpretation may itself be a direct product of the kinds of data selected for presentation in traditional handbooks and Jones notes the fact that phonological change is often "messy" and responsive to a highly tuned ability to perceive fine phonetic detail of a type which, by definition, rarely has the opportunity to surface in historical data sources.

Book Synopsis The Earliest English by : Chris Mccully
Download or read book The Earliest English written by Chris Mccully and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Earliest English provides a student-friendly introduction to Old English and the earliest periods of the history of the English Language as it evolved before 1215. Using non-technical language, the book covers basic terminology, the linguistic and cultural backgrounds to the emergence and development of OE, and the OE vocabulary that students studying this phase of the English language need to know. In eight carefully structured units, the authors show how the vocabulary of Old English contains many items familiar to us today; how its characteristic poetic form is based on a beautiful and intricate simplicity; how its patterns of word building and inflectional structure are paralleled in several present day languages and how and why the English language and its literature continued to change so that by the mid-12th century the English language looks more like the 'English' that we are familiar with in the 21st century. Features of the book include: the provision of accessible guides to some important 'problem topics' of classical OE stimulating cross-linguistic comparisons, e.g. the pronoun system of OE as compared with the pronoun system of present day Dutch cleverly laid out translation exercises, with structural help in the form of selective glossaries careful division into eight units, designed for both classroom use and self-study Written in a clear and accessible manner, The Earliest English provides a comprehensive introduction to the evolution of Old English language and literature, and will be an invaluable textbook for students of English Language and Linguistics.
