Inhalt
Kommentar

The lecture by Michael Heintze will be in German. 

The lecture deals with the periodical subdivision of English, its origins, its position among the Germanic languages, its prehistory as well as with its historical phonology and morphology down to the 15th century. 

History of English (Thomas Honegger - this course will be taught in English)

English as we know it today is the product of a long series of sound-changes, semantic and grammatical shifts, and adaptations to foreign influences and internal negotiations all of which have left their mark on the language. The finished though not final product is a highly flexible and incredibly rich vernacular. In the course of this lecture, I will focus on the development of the language from the dialects of Old English through Middle English to the beginnings of Early Modern English. 

Recommended text: Charles Barber, Joan C. Beal, and Philip A. Shaw. 2009. The English Language. A Historical Introduction. 2nd edition. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

NB: Although acquaintance with phonetics and especially the IPA is not a requirement for this course, it is certainly very helpful to have either attended the 'Introduction to Phonetics' module or to attend it during the same term as the History of English module.

Blake, Norman F., 1996, A History of the English Language, London: Macmillan. (The guiding principle of this language history is not the traditional division into Old, Middle and Modern English, but focuses on the changing fortunes of the different British English ‘standards'.)

Crystal, David, 1995, The Cambridge Encyclopaedia of the English Language, Cambridge, Cambridge University Press. (Brief but concise chapters on various aspect of the English language. Suitable for browsing and quick reference.)

Freeborn, Dennis, 1998, From Old English to Standard English, 2nd edition, London: Macmillan. (A rich mine of texts and exercises covering all aspects of the English language history.)

McCully, Chris and Sharon Hilles, 2005, The Earliest English: An Introduction to Old English Language, London: Pearson Longman. (An excellent and student-centred coursebook to Old English language; less emphasis on texts than Baker 2003)

Millward, C.M., 1996, A Biography of the English Language, 2nd edition, Boston: Thomson Heinle. (A well-written book that covers the different stages of the development of the English language from its Indo-European roots via Old English and Middle English to the Modern English varieties. A few well-chosen textual examples for each chapter illustrate the changes. Suitable for self-study.)

(Designed as a course-book for Proseminars on the history of the English language, it offers an excellent, up-to-date introduction to the most important linguistic developments in the English language. Moessner usually starts out with a problem of contemporary English and takes a closer look at its history.)

(A coursebook that teaches the most important aspects of Middle English language by means of passages from Chaucer's poem Troilus and Criseyde. Some very useful chapters, though the book as a whole is not suitable for self-study since the authors sometimes use rather peculiar linguistic approaches - e.g. in their chapter on syntax.)

Obst, Wolfgang and Florian Schleburg, 2004, Lehrbuch des Altenglischen, Heidelberg: Winter. (A coursebook that teaches the most important aspects of Old English language and literature with German thoroughness.)

Sauer gives an overview of the most important sound changes and provides a phonetic transcription of the entire General Prologue. Ideal for self-study!)
