Zusammenfassung:This volume brings together eleven studies on the history of language and writing in the North Sea area, with focus on contacts and interchanges through time. Its range spans from the investigation of pre-Germanic place-names to present-day Shetland; the materials studied include glosses, legal and trade documents as well as place names and modern dialects. The volume is unique in its combination of linguistics and place-name studies with literacy studies, which allows for a very dynamic picture of the history of language contact and texts in the North Sea area. Different approaches come toget.
Beschreibung:"Most of the chapters in this volume were first presented at a conference on language and literacy in the North Sea area, held in August 2009 at the University of Stavanger, Norway."
