This volume deals with the language of the British upper class in
natural face-to-face dialogue and how this is rendered fictionally
in audiovisual media. Its main aim is that of reorganising the
sparse information on the topic that is found in previous scholarly
studies through a qualitative methodological approach. After
focusing on the linguistic description and evolution of the
upper-class sociolect, the study offers original insights on the
language of the Royal Family and its representation in the TV
series The Crown. The results from this research, which combines
the disciplines of sociolinguistics and dialectology applied to the
audiovisual text, will hopefully open a new path in the study of
language of elite groups in Britain, arguably an under-researched
topic.
