Variation and change in pronominal address in 19th and early 20th-century German private letters
This article for the first time provides a corpus-based investigation of the variation and change in the system of German pronominal forms of address in the 19th and early 20th century. Today’s opposition between formal Sie (‘Siezen’) and informal Du (‘Duzen’) originates in the 18th century; Sie mainly replaced formal forms of address with Ihr (‘Ihrzen’) or Er / Sie (‘Erzen’). The data for our analyses are taken from two corpora of private corres…
Dialektaufgaben und ihre sprachideologischen Prägungen in aktuellen süddeutschen Schulbüchern
This article examines the frequency, types and linguistic ideologies of dialect exercises in 72 German grammar-school textbooks from Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg, introduced with the LehrplanPLUS (2017) and the new Bildungsplan (2016). Bavaria’s text-books predominantly represent the ideologies of vernacularism and patriotism. While there is a dialect-friendly attitude, the Bavarian variety clearly dominates. The dialect exercises of Baden-Württ…
Flexible Schreiber in der Sprachgeschichte
Patientenbriefe bilden eine Textsorte, die der Sprachwissenschaft bislang unbekannt war. Diese Untersuchung basiert auf einem neu erschlossenen Korpus historischer Patiententexte der süddeutschen psychiatrischen Einrichtung Kaufbeuren-Irsee, die mehrere tausend Egodokumente des 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhunderts von Schreiberinnen und Schreibern aus einem breiten sozialen Spektrum überliefert. Im Fokus der sozio- und variationslinguistischen Analyse…
Script switching in nineteenth-century lower-class German handwriting
This paper examines intra-individual “script switching”, alternation between Kurrentschrift (“German script”) and “Latin script”, within nineteenth-century handwritten German texts. We attribute a semiotic value to the textual surface and assume that graphic variation conveys meaning and should therefore be considered a communicative practice. After an overview of the development of Kurrentschrift and of the functions and ideologies behind script…
Code-Switching in Lower-Class Writing
This paper examines intra-speaker variation in historical writing. Its purpose is to show that lower-class people were able to consciously switch between language forms of conceptual orality and distance in their texts. To test this hypothesis, the article focuses on code-switching phenomena in autobiographic writing by patients from the Southern German psychiatric hospitals in Irsee and Kaufbeuren (1852–1931). The corpus of this paper consists o…
How to do things with glosses
This paper provides a novel view on marginalia from the perspective of linguistic pragmatics. It is based on the observation that existing studies often exclude entries in medieval manuscripts that do not comment on the text directly. Many of them, however, are crucial for understanding what medieval monks did when they studied manuscripts. Searle’s (1969) Speech Act Theory, his typology of illocutionary forces, offers a suitable framework for th…
