Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS The object in view is to show what factors are involved in a systematic account of Old English words and speech-sounds. It is argued that the method of investigation is necessarily comparative, involving "a consideration of related words and speech-sounds in the kindred Germanic tongues." Tables of vowel and consonant correspondences are given to aid in a summary view of such comparison, and a list of important works, to which more or less constant reference must be had, accompanies a few brief definitions of the details of the method. The author then fancies himself in a classroom; he is teaching beginners in the more advanced forms of English philology; the text-book is Sweet's 'Anglo-Saxon Reader.' The book is opened at page 36, and the entry of the Chronicle under the year 894 is subjected to special scrutiny. Fifty of the nouns and verbs found in this paragraph are, at apparent random, taken up and made the subjects of fifty separate and consecutively numbered expositions. The construction of these "problems" is highly synoptical, so that a specimen may easily be given. One of the selected words is hám (home). The rubric reads: "OHG. heim; OS. hém; ON. heimr; Goth. haims," and then follows the discussion: "h and m are constant. Goth, s here represents z... This pamphlet will be welcome to many doubtful minds for showing to what uses the appalling first half of Sievers' Grammar may be put, as well as for the specific help it will afford to such as are struggling under less favorable conditions with initial modes of study in the broad domain of English philology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Phonological Investigation of Old English: Illustrated by a Series of Fifty Problems I have supposed a student desirous of working out the phonology of such a passage in a manner at once independent and systematic. Should he not succeed in every instance, he would not be justified in concluding that the method was necessarily wrong. There are problems which, in the present state of our knowledge, baffle all attempts at solution. But it is advantageous that this class of problems be discriminated from the rest, in order that effort may be concentrated upon them, and they may be forced to yield, as equally forbidding ones have already done.

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.'

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first ever book-length study for the nature and significance of the linguistic contact between speakers of Old Norse and Old English in Viking Age England. It investigates in a wide-ranging and systematic fashion a foundational but under-considered factor in the history and culture of the Vikings in England. The subject is important for late Anglo-Saxon and Viking Age history; for language and literature in the late Anglo-Saxon period; and for the history and development of the English language. The work's primary focus is on Anglo-Norse language contact, with a particular emphasis on the question of possible mutual intelligibility between speakers of the two languages; but since language contact is an emphatically sociolinguistic phenomenon, the work's methodology combines linguistic, literary and historical approaches, and draws for its evidence on texts in Old English, Old Norse and Anglo-Latin, and other forms of linguistic and onomastic material

This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 1092 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English historical linguistics is a subfield of linguistics which has developed theories and methods for exploring the history of the English language. This Handbook provides an account of state-of-the-art research on this history. It offers an in-depth survey of materials, methods, and language-theoretical models used to study the long diachrony of English. The frameworks covered include corpus linguistics, historical sociolinguistics, historical pragmatics and manuscript studies, among others. The chapters, by leading experts, examine the interplay of language theory and empirical data throughout, critically assessing the work in the field. Of particular importance are the diverse data sources which have become increasingly available in electronic form, allowing the discipline to develop in new directions. The Handbook offers access to the rich and many-faceted spectrum of work in English historical linguistics, past and present, and will be useful for researchers and students interested in hands-on research on the history of English.
