An Introduction to Early Modern English, helps students of English and linguistics to place the language of the period 1500-1700 in its historical context as a language with a common core but also one which varies across time, regionally and socially, and according to register. The volume focuses on the structure of what contemporaries called the General Dialect--its spelling, vocabulary, grammar and punctuation--and on its dialectal origins. The book also discusses the language situation and linguistic anxieties in England at a time when Latin exerted a strong influence on the rising standard language.
2.1 Range of evidence Early Modern English provides the modern student with
much ampler textual and metalinguistic materials than any earlier period. For the
first time, we have contemporary analyses of the pronunciation, grammar and
vocabulary of English, and can read descriptions of its regional and social
varieties in teaching manuals and textbooks of different kinds. All this information
is valuable in that it gives the modern reader and researcher a window on the
period and its ...

Let author and pastor Mike Gunn be the guide through both "The Da Vinci Code" itself and the dizzying maze of Scripture, contemporary scholarship, philosophy, historical documents, Church tradition, and faith-oriented films that tell the rest of this intriguing story.
Or maybe, just maybe, Dan Brown is like the Coen brothers' Barton Fink, lugging
around a mysterious box; and when someone asks what's in it, all he can do is
mumble, "I don't know."15 To which agent Collet might reply, "You're telling me
you don't have keys to your own truck?"16 Now, this third option is not a criticism.
Many films, like Apocalypse Now! and even Barton Fink, are about the creative
process: about struggling with creative blocks, overcoming them, getting caught
up in ...

This book tells the story of the contacts and conflicts between muslims and christians in Southeast Asia during the Dutch colonial history from 1596 until 1950. The author draws from a great variety of sources to shed light on this period: the letters of the colonial pioneer Jan Pietersz. Coen, the writings of 17th century Dutch theologians, the minutes of the Batavia church council, the contracts of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) with the sultans in the Indies, documents from the files of colonial civil servants from the 19th and 20th centuries, to mention just a few. The colonial situation was not a good starting-point for a religious dialogue. With Dutch power on the increase there was even less understanding for the religion of the muslims . In 1620 J.P. Coen, the strait-laced calvinist, had actually a better understanding and respect for the muslims than the liberal colonial leaders from the early 20th century, convinced as they were of western supremacy.
When this book was first published in a Dutch edition in 1991, post-colonial
Indonesia was seen as an example of a harmonious and peaceful cohabitation of
a minority of some 9% Christians amidst the world's largest Muslim majority
country (in 2005 Muslims counted 87%, or some 205 million, out of 220 million
citizens. At that time I had just finished seven years of teaching at the State
Academy of Islamic Studies in Jakarta and Yogyakarta. In Jakarta I had lived with
my family on the ...
The main aim of this paper is to examine some of these myths and to try to reveal
the realities behind them. I argue that as long as the myths are accepted as
givens there can be no real progress in the study of the New Varieties. I will
explore the myths in the context of IndE but the arguments provided apply to all
the New Varieties. The myths I will deal with are: 1 IndE is a "non-native" variety
of English. 2 IndE has no standards. 3 IndE lacks creativity. 4 IndE is the
language of a small ...
How did English notions of sovereignty, empire and law impact their methods of settlement in the Americas?
At the same time, Elizabeth was holding prisoner her cousin, Mary Queen of
Scots, whom domestic and foreign Catholics intrigued to place on the English
throne. It was also toward the end of the 1570s that Elizabeth began outwardly
showing sympathy for the Dutch desire to revolt against the Spanish rule of Philip
II, the queen's former brother-in-law and suitor. Within this tenuous political
climate, in which a few false steps in the direction of North America could lead to
war, Elizabeth ...
