Lynda Mugglestone traces the origins of the phenomenon in late eighteenth-century London, follows its history through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and charts its downfall during the era of New Labour. This is a witty, readable account of a fascinating subject, liberally spiced with quotations from English speech and writing over the past 250 years. - ;Talking Proper is a history of the rise and fall of the English accent as a badge of cultural, social, and class 606 $aEnglish language$zGreat Britain$xStandardization 606 $aEnglish language$xSpoken English$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnglish language$xSocial aspects$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnglish language$xVariation$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnglish language$xAccents and accentuation 606 $aSpeech and social status$zGreat Britain 606 $aSocial classes$zGreat Britain 607 $aGreat Britain$xSocial life and customs 615 0$aEnglish language$xStandardization. 615 0$aEnglish language$xSpoken English 615 0$aEnglish language$xSocial aspects 615 0$aEnglish language$xVariation 615 0$aEnglish language$xAccents and accentuation. 615 0$aSpeech and social status 615 0$aSocial classes 676 $a306.44/0941 676 $a306.440941 700 $aMugglestone$b Lynda$0322352 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819646603321 996 $aTalking proper"$91094860 997 $aUNINA
