The publication in the past ten years of linguistic atlases of
England and Scotland has not only advanced our knowledge of the
lexical and morphological variety inherent in the English language,
but has made it possible to establish a number of methodological
principles for the study of language both in its contemporary
distribution and in its historical evolution. The essays in this
volume, by contributors to the linguistic atlases and other
dialectologists, describe some of the problems that bedevil the
study of dialect and the methodological solutions employed to
minimise them. They also survey the contributions that linguistic
cartography can make to the study of English and of language in
general. The considerations it embodies are of major importance for
the student of language and, in addition, the book is an invaluable
companion to the Atlases.
