Abstract:

'Studies on Variation in Portuguese' offers a collection of studies on a range
of variable phenomena attested within and across varieties of Portuguese. The
volume starts out with an overview of current issues in the study of
intralinguistic variation and is divided in two parts. Part 1 is dedicated to
research on variation within national varieties (Brazilian and European).
Here, a multidimensional analysis that combines both the geographic and the
social dimensions of variation emerges as a way to identify possible regional
specificities and the directionality of some of the variants. Part 2 collects
studies that compare the behavior of a particular linguistic variable across
different varieties. The variable phenomena discussed concern several levels
of grammar and are framed within different conceptions of variation, thus
promoting confrontation of theoretical and methodological alternatives.
Overall, the volume constitutes a significant contribution to the essential
question of how to model variation at different levels.
