- Inhalt
- In this seminar, we will have a closer look at historical and linguistic contacts between English and the Celtic languages. What has been the impact on English and, in particular, the varieties spoken in Ireland, Wales and Scotland, collectively known as “Celtic Englishes”? Do the “Celtic Englishes” share certain features that are not found in other varieties of English? Ireland, Scotland and Wales (and Cornwall) became England's first colonies from the twelfth century onwards. The Celtic languages that were spoken there are in decline nowadays – some more than others. Yet the varieties of English spoken there are recognised as distinctive varieties today. The main focus of this seminar is on research regarding English spoken in Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, but we will also deal with Celtic features found in other varieties of English throughout the world such as in Newfoundland English, as speakers of Celtic languages and Celtic-influenced varieties of English have been transported or emigrated to other states and continents.
There will be a folder including certain papers from the Basislektüre in the Semesterapparat from 16 October onwards. There will be a workshop day on 12 January which is obligatory for all participants.
Everyone who attends this seminar has to prepare a certain topic and do a presentation in class. Written papers have to be handed in by March 30.
