Die Beiträge dieses Sammelbandes sind das Ergebnis des 7. Internationalen Sprachsymposiums, welches im Juni 1991 an der Universität Tromsoe gehalten wurde. Das Buch ist eines der wenigen Werke, das sich mit linguistischen Aspekten verschiedener altgermanischer Sprachen beschäftigt. Bei der komparativen sowie historischen Betrachtungsweise der verschiedenen Sprachsysteme, wie beispielsweise der Erläuterung der Runenschriftzeichen, stehen Altenglisch sowie Altnordisch im Mittelpunkt.

Old English and Old Norse are the languages that are most discussed.
Klappentext
TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across theoretical frameworks, as well as studies that provide new insights by approaching language from an interdisciplinary perspective.
TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as well as in its social contexts as important sources of insight for a better understanding of the design of linguistic systems and the ecology and evolution of language.
TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS publishes monographs and outstanding dissertations as well as edited volumes, which provide the opportunity to address controversial topics from different empirical and theoretical viewpoints. High quality standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing.
