Abstract:

Paris became the largest city in the Western world during the
thirteenth century, and has remained influential ever since. This book
examines the interlinked history of Parisian speech and the Parisian
population through various phases of immigration, dialect-mixing and
social stratification from the Middle Ages to the present. It reveals
how new urban modes of speech developed during periods of expansion,
how the city's elites sought to distinguish their language from that
of the masses, and how a working-class vernacular eventually emerged
with its own "slang" vocabulary.
