| Abstract | "This volume focuses on the processes of language contact undergone by English through the centuries, and on the effects of contacts in the language, particularly at the lexical level. The volume is a contribution to studies on language contact in the history of English, with special attention to language contact as cultural contact, as well as on its effects on specific text types. The volume contributes to advance research on the diachronic analysis of language contact and text types, as well as providing new reflections on borrowing and lexical innovation as cultural choices. It will be useful to scholars and advanced students in historical English linguistics, cultural linguistics, text and discourse analysis and lexicography"-- Provided by publisher. |
