The 'Grosseto Workshop' was an event which broke new ground. It brought together for the first time an international and interdisciplinary group of researchers concerned with computational lexicography…

In doing so, Ulman develops a general model of the of language for rhetorical theory, a model that transcends the impasse between realism skepticism that marks both eighteenth- twentieth-century rhetorical theory.The nature of was never more central to rhetorical theor…

• Introduction to Early Modern English

  W Nelson Francis, Manfred Görlach•ARTICLE•Language•1993

  Añadir item

  The period between 1500 and 1700 was the most decisive one in the formation of standard modern English, yet no really comprehensive account of Early Modern English has been available. Manfred Gorlach's Introduction to Early Modern English fills a very real need. It provides a thorough and linguistically informed synchronic description of Early Modern English, dealing with its varieties, with writing and orthography, phonetics and phonology, synta…

  I N an age when tales of strange voyages are reasserting their age-old fascination, when any strange craft from Heyerdahl's primitive balsa raft to Beebe's super-scientific bathysphere is almost sure to produce a best seller, an older classic of the literature of discovery deserves to be known. I call it an epic, though it was not primarily intended as a work of literature at all; most of its many authors were blunt men of action, to whom the pen…

If you are curious about what I said, you will find it in the March, 1953, issue of College English. What it added up to in short was that English teachers should pay attention to what linguists were saying about language and take the responsibility for educating their students therein. I closed with the following four recomm…
