Beschreibung:
English as spoken in the North of England has a rich social and cultural history; however research has often neglected it in favour of Standard English. In this groundbreaking, alternative account of the history of English, Northern English takes centre stage for the first time. Emphasizing its richness and variety, the book re-assesses the role of Northern English in the development of Modern Standard English, draws some pioneering conclusions about the future of Northern English, and considers the origins of the many images and stereotypes surrounding Northerners and their speech.
1. The north-south divide; 2. The origins of northern English; 3. Northern English and the rise of 'standard' English; 4. Northern English after the industrial revolution (1750¿1950); 5. Northern English present and future.
