| Kurzbeschreibung
This third volume of the Principles of Linguistic Change set examines the cognitive and cultural causes responsible for linguistic change, and traces the history of these developments, from triggering events to driving forces and endpoints. Labov looks deeply into questions of linguistic change, focusing on the cognitive factors, and exploring social influences in the development of large-scale cultural patterns. Written by the pioneering researcher of sociolinguistic inquiry, this is an essential resource for researchers, scholars, and students in the field.
