Abstract:

The papers in this volume aim at facilitating exchange between three fields of
inquiry that are of great importance in historical linguistics: language
change, (socio)linguistic research on variation, and contact linguistics.
Drawing on a range of recently-developed methodological innovations, such as
methods for quantifying the linguistic variation (that is a prerequisite for
language change) or new corpus-based methods for investigating text-type
variation, the contributors are able to trace linguistic change in different
periods and contact situations, demonstrate how variation occurs, and in how
far language change results out of this variation. Thus, the chapters go
beyond core issues of language variation and change, focusing on the boundary
between word and grammar, discourse and ideology in the history of the English
language.
