Abstract:

This volume explores changing norms and conventions in the English language,
as displayed in a broad range of historical data from more than five
centuries. The contributions discuss the interplay of sociocultural
conditions, specific discourse traditions and structural aspects of language,
paying special attention to the communities where norms and conventions are
displayed and shaped in verbal interaction. The volume is enriched by
systematic terminological clarifications, interdisciplinary approaches and the
introduction of new methods like network analysis and advanced analytical
tools and forms of visualisation into the diachronic investigation of
historical texts.
