Coal mining, a prominent industry once situated at the heart of
communities across the East Midlands, has now completely ceased in
the UK. Although there is some attempt to keep hold of the
artefacts which tell us about mining, mining language remains
neglected. Natalie Braber's research has shown there is a variety
of 'pit talk' which is distinctive to the East Midlands. Lexical
Variation of an East Midlands Mining Community explains the
distinct language used by miners in their day-to-day lives. This
book will appeal to academics interested in language variation and
change, language and identity, community heritage, fragmented
communities and post-industrial societies.
