【内容】
This book is a quantitative and qualitative sociohistorical study focusing on the grammatical variation of the pronoun in nineteenth-century English novels. The nineteenth century is regarded as the period of the novel’s full arrival for its richness in publication. With a variety of perspectives—such as historical, morphological, phonological, stylistic, sociolinguistic, pragmatic and regional—the book reveals which linguistic factors are involved in the language usages of the characters in the novels as well as of the authors who created them. The book also considers how a prominent upsurge of normative grammar influenced the change of English language throughout the century.
本書は、19世紀イギリス小説をコーパスとし、英語代名詞の文法的ヴァリエーションにかかわる言語内外の要因を、巨視的・微視的に分析した歴史言語学の研究書である。小説の会話や語りにみられる代名詞の変異形は、どのように用いられ、そしてなぜ作家によって異なったのか。史的、社会言語学的、語用論的、地域的、文体的、統語的、形態的、音韻的などの様々な視点をとりいれ、19世紀から現代英語へと続く代名詞用法の変化の道筋をたどる。
