商品簡介
Atlas of the Gulf States (LAGS) as a defining linguistic study of this
century, though one of the most underused.
Emory University's Lee Pedersen directed and brought to completion the
Linguistic Atlas of the Gulf States, a cumulative study of the language
patterns for eight states of the interior South, from Georgia west to Texas.
The essays comprising From the Gulf States and Beyond include a comprehensive
introduction to and assessment of that mammoth project along with ten essays
of linguistic exploration.
Four essays are specific studies showing the usefulness of LAGS materials.
These include two essays that redefine linguistic boundaries in Alabama
using LAGS data, an exploration of double models (such as might could),
and an examination of gender-based language differences among LAGS informants.
Other essays broaden the discussion to such allied areas as the interrelationship
of LAGS and the Dictionary of American Regional English, other studies
in dialectology, and further research involving lexical and onomastic data.
From the Gulf States and Beyond demonstrates how LAGS material can be
used to address issues important to sociolinguists, dialectologists, folklorists,
and others about the speech and culture of the 20th-century South. In addition
to the authors' own insights, these essays show how the LAGS project has
created an enormous treasury for future research.
The in-depth introduction to LAGS and the essays analyzing linguistic-atlas
data make this volume an essential text for scholars analyzing LAGS and
other linguistic atlas data as well as for linguistics courses in modern
areal dialectology.
