Focusing on the sociolinguistic history of Germanic languages, the
current volume challenges the traditional teleological approach of
language historiography. The 30 contributions present alternative
histories of ten a ~biga (TM) as well as a ~smalla (TM) Germanic
languages and varieties in the last 300 years. Topics covered in
this book include language variation and change and the politics of
language contact and choice, seen against the background of
standardization processes of written and oral text genres and from
the viewpoint of larger sections of the population.
