Description
This volume presents an overview of recent and current work in Japan on various aspects of English historical linguistics and philology. The contributions cover fields as research as diverse as graphemics, phonology, morphology and word-formation, syntax, lexicology and semantics, stylistics and metrics, and dialectology. A large number of papers are devoted to syntax, ranging from the grammatical category of gender to intangible contextual effects on syntactic change. The results indicate new vistas for further productive research.
