The study embraces the fields of corpus linguistics, historical pragmatics, and historical sociolinguistics. Using data drawn from the recently released A Corpus of English Dialogues 1560-1760 and manuscript material, the aim is to ascertain which extra-linguistic and linguistic factors highlighted by previous research appear particularly relevant in the selection and relative distribution of thou and you. Previous research on thou and you has tended to concentrate on Drama and/or been primarily qualitative in nature. Depositions in particular have hitherto received very little attention. This book is intended to help fill a gap in the literature by presenting an in-depth qualitative and quantitative analysis of pronoun usage in Trials, Depositions, and, for comparative purposes, Drama Comedy. 410 0$aPragmatics & beyond ;$vv. 158. 606 $aEnglish language$xPronoun 606 $aYou (The English word) 606 $aThou (The English word) 615 0$aEnglish language$xPronoun. 615 0$aYou (The English word) 615 0$aThou (The English word) 676 $a425/.55 686 $aHF 275$2rvk 700 $aWalker$b Terry$f1961-$01800374 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957036803321 996 $aThou and You in early modern English dialogues$94345134 997 $aUNINA
