Section Info:
The English language has a fascinating history and an equally fascinating structure. In fact, it has multiple histories and multiple structures, dynamic and evolving, yet still identifiable as varieties of English. In the Introduction to the Study of the English Language, we will learn how a deep understanding of the mechanics of the language can lead to an even deeper understanding of its soul, as expressed in literature, in politics, in popular culture, and in personal communication. We will examine how English works, where it has been, and where it may be going as it makes its way around the world, over the centuries, and into a future that will continue to remake it and be remade by it in turn.
