Description
This collection charts the evolution of grammatical variation in Englishes from the Late Middle English to the present, using corpus linguistic tools to address divergence and convergence in local and global perspectives.
'The volume comprises a topically diverse range of contributions. In addition to the unifying focus on variation and World Englishes, however, all chapters follow a corpus-based, empirical methodology, giving coherence to the book despite its breadth of topics.'
