About the Book

This book is a collection of interesting and relevant research papers on language variation, change, and standardisation in some Indo-European languages and beyond. Focusing on both theoretical and practical issues, it is unique in that it offers a rare combination of language variation, change, and standardisation, rethinking the relationship between language variation and standardisation. The book provides a new framework for the study of language standardisation that takes us beyond the still dominant normative monolingualism. Some research concludes that there is always a conceptually unbridgeable gap between the notion of language change and the notion of standardisation, and that some language varieties are the source of human power and an essential sign of identity for those who have them in their heritage. This book aims to continue the dialogue with scholars, stimulate interest in language, and foster discussion on current language issues between academics and the public.
