Cover of Leek Frederike van der Leek & Fischer Olga Fischer: Papers from the 4th International Conference on English Historical Linguistics, Amsterdam, April 10-13, 1985 (PDF)

These papers are a selection from papers presented at the 4th International Conference on English Historical Linguistics (Amsterdam, 1985). 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.
