Abstract:

'Language Variation - European Perspectives VI' showcases a selection of
papers from the 8th International Conference on Language Variation in Europe
which was held in Leipzig in 2015. The volume includes plenaries by Miriam
Meyerhoff and Steffen Klaere (“The large and the small of it: Big issues with
smaller samples in the study of language variation”), Martin Haspelmath and
Susanne Maria Michaelis (“Analytic and synthetic: Typological change in
varieties of European languages”) and Jürgen Erich Schmidt (“Dynamics,
variation and the brain“). In addition, the editors have selected 11 papers
which exemplify the breadth of research on European languages. The
contributions to this volume encompass languages as varied as Swedish, Greek,
Galician, Dutch, German, Swedish, English (including English-lexified contact
varieties), French, Spanish, Croatian, Luxembourgish and Romani. The variety
of theoretical frameworks and methodological perspectives and particularly the
combination of different methods attests to the scope of research currently
being conducted on language variation and change in European languages.
