    "Dialect and Dichotomy introduces and critiques canonical works in literary dialect analysis and covers recent, innovative applications of linguistic analysis to representations of African American dialect in American literature. It also proposes theoretical principles and specific methods that can be implemented in order to analyze literary dialect for either linguistic or literary purposes, or both. Finally, the proposed methods are applied in four original analyses of African American speech as represented in major works of fiction of the American South - Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Charles W. Chestnutt's The Conjure Woman, William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, and Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God."--Jacket A Brief History of American literary dialect -- Linguists, literary critics, and literary dialect -- Methodology -- Articulating Jim: language and characterization in Huckleberry Finn -- "A high, holy purpose": dialect in Charles W. Chesnutt's conjure tales -- Representations of speech and attitudes about race in the sound and the fury -- Community in conflict: saying and doing in their eyes were watching god.

    This book investigates linguistic variation as a complex continuum of language use from standard to nonstandard. In our view, these notions can only be established through mutual definition, and they cannot exist without the opposite pole. What is considered standard English changes according to the approach at hand, and the nonstandard changes accordingly. This book offers an interdisciplinary and multifaceted approach to this central theme of wide interest.The articles approach writing in nonstandard language through various disciplines and methodologies: sociolinguistics, pragmatics, hist

    This book represents a new publishing venture in terms of its range of concerns with regard to English in Southeast Asia.

    Past tense theories -- Naturalness and the English past tense system -- Sellt and knowed : non-standard weak verbs -- Drunk, seen, done and eat : two-part paradigms instead of three-part paradigms -- Come and run : non-standard strong verbs with a one-part paradigm -- Conclusion : supralocalization and morphological theories. Where do dialects differ from Standard English, and why are they so remarkably resilient? This study argues that commonly used verbs that deviate from Standard English for the most part have a long pedigree. Analysing the language use of over 120 dialect speakers, Lieselotte Anderwald demonstrates that not only are speakers justified historically in using these verbs, systematically these non-standard forms actually make more sense. By constituting a simpler system, they are generally more economical than their Standard English counterparts. Drawing on data collected from the Freiburg English Dialect Corpus (FRED), this innovative and engaging study will be of great interest to students and researchers of English language and linguistics, morphology and syntax
