Old English and the Theory of Phonology by Bezalel E. Dresher Pdf

First published in 1985. This title is a study in the synchronic and diachronic phonology and morphology of the Mercian dialect of Old English. It is particularly concerned with issues in the theory of phonology that have been the subject of the ‘abstractness controversy’, which developed in response to the theory of phonology put forward by Chomsky and Hale. This title will be of interest to students of English language and linguistics.

Old English Phonology by Roger Lass,John Mathieson Anderson,John M. Anderson Pdf

A detailed study of Old English, taking as its point of departure the 'standard theory' of generative phonology as developed by Chomsky and Halle. Dr Lass and Dr Anderson set out all the main phonological processes of Old English and against their larger historical background (including subsequent developments in the history of English). They propose many fresh solutions to long-standing problems in the history and structure of Old English. The result is an extensive and sophisticated treatment of this subject. An important theory is examined against a well-studied body of linguistic knowledge, and is partly validated and partly revised. The book will be important for all linguistics and historians of English and Indo-European.

Old English by Roger Lass Pdf

Old English is a companion to Old English studies and to historical studies of early English in general. It is also an introduction to Indo-European studies in the particular sense in which they underpin the history of English. Professor Roger Lass makes accessible in a linguistically up-to-date and readable form the Indo-European and Germanic background to Old English, as well as what can be reconstructed about the resulting state of Old English itself. His book is a bridge between the more elementary Old English grammars and the major philological grammars and recent interpretations of the Old English data.Old English assumes a basic knowledge of phonetics and phonology, the elements of syntactic and morphological theory, and an introduction to historical linguistics. An extensive glossary gives definitions of the major technical terms used.

The Development of Old English by Donald A. Ringe,Ann Taylor Pdf

This book, the second volume in A Linguistic History of English, describes the development of Old English from Proto-Germanic. Like Volume I, it is an internal history of the structure of English that combines traditional historical linguistics, modern syntactic theory, the study of languages in contact, and the variationist approach to language change. The first part of the book considers the development of Northwest and West Germanic, and the northern dialects of the latter, with particular reference to phonological and morphological phenomena. Later chapters present a detailed account of changes in the Old English sound system, inflectional system, and syntax. The book aims to make the findings of traditional historical linguistics accessible to scholars and students in other subdisciplines, and also to adopt approaches from contemporary theoretical linguistics in such a way that they are accessible to a wide range of historical linguists.

Synopsis of Old English Phonology by A. L. Mayhew Pdf

Excerpt from Synopsis of Old English Phonology: Being a Systematic Account of Old English Vowels and Consonants and Their Correspondences in the Cognate Languages I have named this little work 'a Synopsis of Old English Phonology.' By the term 'phonology' I mean exactly the same thing as the Germans mean by the term 'lautlehre, ' that is, a systematic account of the sounds of a language as represented by written symbols or letters. The subject of my book is the Vocalism and Consonantism of Old English or anglo-saxon. Its central subject of investigation is the Early West Saxon form of Old English. The work is an attempt to give a systematic account of the correspondences of the West Saxon Vowels and Consonants: in the first place. With Primitive Germanic and pre-germanic sounds; secondly, with the sourids in the principal Old English Dialects; and thirdly (in Part II), with the sounds in Modern English. With the help of the Tables set forth in Part II the student will be enabled in some typical instances to trace the Modern English form of a word through the Old English form, through the Primitive Germanic type, back to the type assumed to have existed - Tin the Urspmeke, ' called in this work Indogermanic.'

Old and Middle English Language Studies by Anonim Pdf

Since the publication of Kennedy's monumental Bibliography of Writings on the English Language, no bibliography has systematically surveyed the Old and Middle English scholarship accumulated over the past 60 years. Tajima's work aims to meet the need for an updated bibliography of Old and Middle English language studies; it lists books, monographs, dissertations, articles, notes, and reviews on Old and Middle English language. The items have been listed into fourteen fairly broad categories: (1) Bibliographies, (2) Dictionaries, glossaries and concordances, (3) Histories of the English language, (4) Grammars (historical, Old English and Middle English), (5) General and miscellaneous studies, (6) Language of individual authors or works, (7) Orthography and punctuation, (8) Phonology and phonetics, (9) Morphology, (10) Syntax, (11) Lexicology, lexicography and word-formation, (12) Onomastics, (13) Dialectology, (14) Stylistics.
