Historical studies on Old and Middle High German and the
corresponding stages in the development of Low German represent a
fairly well-defined field of inquiry. The period between the 16th
century and the present, by contrast, confronts historical language
research with a considerable dilemma in that the language system
can be regarded in many respects as not having undergone major
changes so much as a process of extension and differentiation. The
papers delivered at the Heidelberg colloquium and published here in
book form discuss possible areas of inquiry for historical language
research into the evolution of the German language since the early
Modern Age, approaches to the problems this field presents and
methods of describing the phenomena encountered. Particular
emphasis is placed throughout on the history of reflection on
language, the institutional concern with language and the manifold
interpenetration between forms of language usage employed in
society in general, in the history of ideas, the history of
literature and across the various cultural areas of the
German-speaking world.
