A History of English Words - The Language Library
Hughes, Geoffrey (University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa)
This book traces the remarkable reconfigurations that English lexis has undergone in the past millennium. The vocabulary is studied as an indicator of social change, a symbol reflecting different social dynamics between speech communities, on models of dominance, cohabitation, colonialism and globalisation.
