“The Awful German Language” is a humorous examination of the German language and the frustrations a native English speaker may have when learning it. The essay was published as Appendix D of “A Tramp Abroad” by Mark Twain in 1880.
This book consists of a collection of papers on specific issues centred around three broad areas of scholarly interest: native language analysis, foreign language acquisition and training, and cultural and literary studies. It provides a concise snapshot of the multiplicity of vantage points from which language, literature and culture-related phenomena can be studied and accounted for. The unifying principle behind the variety of issues and approaches illustrated here is the overarching notion of Englishness treated as an object of intellectual inquiry (with a focus on the English-speaking communities, their cultures, English-based creole languages) and as a repository of methodological blueprints applicable in explorations of other languages and cultures. The authors of the articles included in this volume are academics and junior researchers who, on the occasion of the 10th Conference on British and American Studies, convened to share their ideas and pave the way for further work in intersecting research areas subsumed under linguistics, sociolinguistics, and cultural studies.
First published in 1986, this book draws together analyses of English and German. It defines the contrasts and similarities between the two languages and, in particular, looks at the question of whether contrasts in one area of the grammar is systematically related to contrasts in another, and whether there is any ‘directionality’ or unity to contrast throughout grammar as a whole. It is suggested that there is, and that English and German can serve as a case study for a more general typology of languages than we now have. This volume will be of interest to a wide range of linguists, including students of Germanic languages; language typologists; generative grammarians attempting to ‘fix the parameters’ on language variation;’ historical linguists; and applied linguists.
