Abstract:
This textbook invites the student to explore early English syntax by looking
at the linguistic characteristics of well- known texts throughout the early
history of English. It shows how that piece of the language fits in to the
broader picture of how English is developing and introduces the student to the
real writing of the period as you look at the original manuscript version of
selected excerpts. For each text, issues such as the word order, the presence
of auxiliaries, articles, and pronouns, the types of pronouns, and the nature
of complex sentences are explored. It is designed for upper-level
undergraduates with some experience of historical linguistics.
