The variety of the contexts of use has made it possible to consider different ELF-using communities...

The MS Digby 133 «Mary Magdalene»: Beyond Scribal Practices: Language, Discourse, Values and Attitudes
ISBN: 9783034332569 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The MS 133 Digby Mary Magdalene has commonly been investigated by paying attention to literary features, while linguistic aspects have seldom been taken into consideration, with the result that any deviation from the norm has been classified as scribal inconsistency. However, what has been regarded as scribal carelessness actually seems to be a modern misunderstanding of scribal practices. Indeed, the significant combination of Southern, Midlands and Northern elements featuring in the language of Mary Magdalene is the result of the scribe's desire to faithfully reproduce the author's design,...

Relativization in Early English (950-1250): The Position of Relative Clauses
ISBN: 9783039112036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 158 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book is concerned with the position which relative clauses occupy with respect to the main clause in the history of English. Relative clauses have evolved from adjoined clauses placed outside the main clause to clauses closely attached to the noun they modify inside the main clause. This process of incorporation took place through a stage of topicalization in which relative clauses were dislocated to the left of the main clause, leaving a trace behind in the place where they are generated. This study is empirically founded, with data from The Helsinki Corpus of English Texts:...
