Current Methods in Historical Semantics
Ed. by Allan, Kathryn / Robinson, Justyna A.
Series:Topics in English Linguistics [TiEL] 73
Aims and Scope
Innovative, data-driven methods provide more rigorous and systematic evidence for the description and explanation of diachronic semantic processes. The volume systematises, reviews, and promotes a range of empirical research techniques and theoretical perspectives that currently inform work across the discipline of historical semantics. In addition to emphasising the use of new technology, the potential of current theoretical models (e.g. within variationist, sociolinguistic or cognitive frameworks) is explored along the way.
