      abstract = {This textbook approaches the history of English from a  theoretical perspective. The book provides a brief  chronological overview describing the way in which the  English language has changed over time from Old English to  Modern English, while subsequent parts adopt a theoretical  focus that is thematically organised to deal with the  question of how and why English changed in the way it did,  including a part addressing some specific contact-induced  changes and key topics such as English as a Lingua Franca.  Supported throughout with information boxes with empirical  studies, the examples given are all drawn from English, but  boxes with examples from other languages tie the  development of the English language into changes in other  contexts and settings. This book is an ideal resource for  undergraduate students of the English Language and  historical linguistics. .},
