Conclusion.Historical Sociolinguistics: Language Change in Tudor and Stuart England is the seminal text in the field of historical sociolinguistics. Demonstrating the real-world application of sociolinguistic research methodologies, this book examines the social factors which promoted linguistic changes in English, laying the foundation for Modern Standard English. This revised edition of Nevalainen and Raumolin-Brunberg's ground-breaking work: discusses the grammatical developments that shaped English in the early modern period; presents the sociolinguistic factors affecting linguistic change inTudor and StuartEnglish, including gender, social status, and regional variation; showcases the authors' research into personal letters from the people who were the driving force behind these changes; and demonstrates how historical linguists can make use of social and demographic history to analyse linguistic variation over an extended period of time. With brand new chapters on language change and the individual, and on newly developed sociolinguistic researchmethods, Historical Sociolinguistics is essential reading for all students and researchers in this area.English languageEarly modern, 1500-1700Social aspectsHistorical linguisticsEnglandEnglandSocial conditions16th centuryEnglandSocial conditions17th centuryElectronic books.English languageSocial aspects.Historical linguistics306.44221Nevalainen Terttu518328Raumolin-Brunberg HelenaOCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910150340903321Historical sociolinguistics2885446UNINA
