Most studies deal with some aspect of an earlier stage of English, though present day varieties of English are also under investigation. Many of the papers show that there is a growing interest in the question why a certain change has taken place. Furthermore, the volume contains a considerable number of papers on historical syntax. 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries IV,$pCurrent issues in linguistic theory ;$vv. 41. 606 $aEnglish language$xGrammar, Historical$vCongresses 615 0$aEnglish language$xGrammar, Historical 676 $a420/.9 701 $aEaton$b Roger$0164713 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816180203321 996 $aPapers from the 4th International Conference on English Historical Linguistics, Amsterdam, 10-13 April 1985$93956318 997 $aUNINA
