HOW TO PREPARE FOR CLASSES
Study the textbook: Fennell, B.,
A History of English: a Sociolinguistic Approach
(Oxford, 2001). Prepare the relevant pages, and note all problems and arising
questions for discussion in class. It is recommended that you consult further
publications for more information, e.g. Barber, C.,
The English Language: a Historical Introduction, 2nd ed. (Cambridge, 2000) [S FA 1993:3], and Millward, C. M.,
A Biography of the English Language,
2nd ed. (Fort Worth, 1996) [S FA 1996:3]. A good collection of texts from all
periods of English language history is Burnley, D.,
The History of the English Language: a Source Book, 2nd ed. (Harlow, 2000) [S FA 1992:3].
Study and prepare any relevant handouts sent out by e-mail and found in the folder
