Abstract:

King John of England’s defeat by the French in 1204 led to the territorial
fragmentation of the Duchy of Normandy. Henceforth, the Norman mainland,
allied to France, and the Channel Islands, allied to England, would find
themselves on different sides of an ever-widening linguistic gulf. In
Variation and Change in Mainland and Insular Norman, Mari C. Jones examines
the way in which contact between the Norman dialect and its two typologically
different superstrates (French and English) provides optimal conditions to
study the linguistic mechanisms of ‘dialect contact’ and ‘language contact’.
Through the analysis of extensive and original phonological, morphosyntactic
and lexical data, set in their historical and sociolinguistic contexts, this
fascinating study explores how advergence with its superstrates has led Norman
to diverge linguistically within these territories.
