A critical note --; Index of names; restricted access; Issued also in print N2 - In this volume of 29 papers, readers interested in language variation and historical linguistics will find interesting theoretical proposals as well as suggestions concerning ways of approaching previously unsolved empirical problems in the field. The papers deal with various aspects of historical regional dialectology, and some border on the issue of dialectology and linguistic change. Although many deal with English, a number discuss Romance languages in general as well as Norwegian, German, relic languages of the eastern Alpine region, Coptic, and Fox. Some are devoted to more general issues. The language specific contributions also often cover areas of a more general nature. The results indicate new vistas for further productive research in the area of historical dialectology UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110848137 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110848137 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110848137/original ER -
