In dieser Hinsicht bestehen erstaunliche Parallelen zum Werk Friedrich Nietzsches. Der Film greift wesentliche Gedanken des deutschen Philosophen auf, indem er seine Kritik zun{\"a}chst gegen die abendl{\"a}ndisch christliche Religion richtet, um sie anschließend konsequent auf die {\"U}berh{\"o}hung der Wissenschaft, der Vernunft, des Logos auszudehnen. Letztere {\"a}ußert Kubrick nicht zuletzt durch die Darstellung des scheinbar omnipr{\"a}senten und omnipotenten Bordcomputers und die blinde Technologiegl{\"a}ubigkeit, die ihm entgegen gebracht wird. Nachdem die Maschine {\"u}berwunden ist, tritt der Kern der zun{\"a}chst vordergr{\"u}ndig kulturell-zivilisatorisch wirkenden Entwicklungsgeschichte zu Tage: das Individuum. Der Mensch durchl{\"a}uft Nietzsches Verwandlungen in Kamel, L{\"o}we und Kind, wodurch er letztlich zu sich selbst findet. Kubricks ber{\"u}hmter Monolith, der gemeinhin als gr{\"o}ßtes R{\"a}tsel des Films gilt, reiht sich dabei ebenso nahtlos in das Gesamtbild ein, wie die nicht weniger Fragen aufwerfende Reise des Protagonisten durch den Lichttunnel oder das schwer verst{\"a}ndliche Ende, bei dem sich Bowman mitsamt der Raumkapsel an einem unwirklichen Ort wiederfindet. Nietzsche und Kubrick sind sich in ihrer offenen Vielschichtigkeit so {\"a}hnlich, dass die Arbeit weder f{\"u}r den Einen noch f{\"u}r den Anderen in Anspruch nimmt, eine abschließende Deutung vorzulegen. Die Betrachtung versteht sich daher lediglich als Angebot einer koh{\"a}renten Lesart des Science-Fiction-Klassikers, deren Gedankengang auch {\"u}ber den f{\"u}r Nietzsche {\"a}ußerst bedeutsamen Schopenhauer schließlich zu dem deutschen Philosophen f{\"u}hrt, der die Schlagworte vom „{\"U}bermenschen" und dem „Willen zur Macht" pr{\"a}gte.}, language = {de} } @misc{Siegmund2013, type = {Master Thesis}, author = {Siegmund, Michael}, title = {General Douglas MacArthur und der Koreakrieg}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-67378}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Zu Beginn des Koreakrieges hatte im benachbarten Japan ein Mann de facto alle Macht in seinen H{\"a}nden, der seit 1942 Oberbefehlshaber der alliierten Truppen im Pazifik gewesen war und am 2. September 1945 mit der Entgegennahme der japanischen Kapitulation den Zweiten Weltkrieg beendete - Douglas MacArthur. Der General, der den Pazifik einst als angels{\"a}chsischen See bezeichnet hatte, war unter seiner administrativen Leitung maßgeblich verantwortlich f{\"u}r die japanische Nachkriegsentwicklung und stand nun vor der neuen Herausforderung des Oberbefehls {\"u}ber die Truppen der Vereinten Nationen in Korea. Der {\"u}ber alle Maßen erfolgsverw{\"o}hnte MacArthur hatte die an Profilierungsm{\"o}glichkeiten nicht zu {\"u}berbietenden Weltkriege genutzt, um zu einem der h{\"o}chstdekorierten Offiziere der US-Milit{\"a}rgeschichte aufzusteigen. Innerhalb seines pazifischen Machtbereiches hatte er sich {\"u}ber die Jahre den Status eines quasi souver{\"a}nen Staatsoberhauptes aufgebaut - mit einem eigenen Verwaltungsapparat, einer eigenen Armee und einem eigenen Geheimdienst, und er betrieb, einem souver{\"a}nen Herrscher entsprechend, auch seine ganz eigene Politik. In dieser Arbeit wird, ausgehend von der These - MacArthur habe, einen Plan verfolgend, seine Position genutzt, um den Versuch zu unternehmen, den f{\"u}r ihn sehr gelegen und keineswegs {\"u}berraschend kommenden Krieg in Korea zu einem Entscheidungsschlag gegen den asiatischen Kommunismus auszuweiten, nationalistischen Kr{\"a}ften zur Macht zu verhelfen und den dann endlich nicht mehr zu {\"u}bertreffenden milit{\"a}rischen Ruhm politisch zu instrumentalisieren, um zur republikanischen Pr{\"a}sidentschaftskandidatur zu gelangen - zun{\"a}chst das Hauptaugenmerk auf MacArthurs Beziehung zu Mao Tse-tungs Gegenspieler Chiang Kai-shek, dem Machthaber im S{\"u}den Koreas, Syngman Rhee, und deren m{\"o}gliche strategische Einbeziehung sowie zur demokratischen Truman-Administration gelegt. Im zweiten Schwerpunkt werden, beginnend mit dem kurzen Entwurf eines Pers{\"o}nlichkeitsprofils MacArthurs, seine milit{\"a}rischen und politischen Ziele plausibilisiert. Dabei dient die weiter oben formulierte These als Blaupause f{\"u}r die Betrachtung des Kriegsverlaufes mit einem agierenden, aktiv seinen Plan verfolgenden General MacArthur, dessen (politisches) Handeln auch nach seiner Absetzung durch Pr{\"a}sident Truman noch unter dem Licht dieses Plans betrachtet werden kann.}, language = {de} } @misc{Rosumek2013, type = {Master Thesis}, author = {Rosumek, Anita}, title = {Dialoge in Online-Leserforen - Struktur und Gegenstand : Untersuchungen zur Markenidentifikation am Beispiel der „Locationgate"-Aff{\"a}re}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-64914}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Mit der Entwicklung des Social Web, also einem Internet, in dem sich immer mehr Nutzer untereinander auf Kommunikationsplattformen wie Facebook, in Foren und Bewertungsplattformen und auf Microblogging-Diensten wie Twitter austauschen, {\"u}berschlagen sich Kommunikationsspezialisten mit Ratschl{\"a}gen f{\"u}r Unternehmen, wie sie die Kommunikation im Internet insbesondere in kritischen Situationen zu gestalten h{\"a}tten, und diverse Dienstleister bieten die Beobachtung (Monitoring) der Kommunikation {\"u}ber Unternehmen im Internet an. Dieser Entwicklung folgend besch{\"a}ftigt sich diese Arbeit mit der Beschreibung und Analyse der Kommunikationssituation am Beispiel der „Locationgate"- Aff{\"a}re (Apple-iPhone-Tracking): Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit ist die Betrachtung der Kommunikation {\"u}ber Apple in einer f{\"u}r das Unternehmen zumindest {\"a}ußerlich kritisch erscheinenden Situation. Untersucht wird die Diskussion des medienwirksamen Ereignisses durch Leser1 in Online-Foren zu Artikeln {\"u}ber den Vorfall. Bei anf{\"a}nglicher Brisanz, die bei dem Thema iPhone-Tracking zu erwarten war, zeigte sich recht schnell, dass zwar in den Leserkommentaren sehr viel und auch sehr kontrovers diskutiert wurde - jedoch f{\"u}r die Marke Apple keine echte Gefahr zu drohen schien, denn die Diskussionen schienen vor allem unter den Nutzern als Fans oder Gegner (Hater) der Marke Apple gef{\"u}hrt zu werden. Eine erste quantitative Untersuchung war von einer Auseinandersetzung mit den M{\"o}glichkeiten des Monitoring der (Social-Media-)Internetkommunikation {\"u}ber eine Marke/ein Unternehmen, das - meist automatisiert, auf quantitativen Analysen basierend - angeboten wird, motiviert. Diese ergab, dass sich relativ geringe Reaktionen zum Positiven oder Negativen hin auf die Unternehmenskommunikation feststellen ließen. Eine erste qualitative Datensichtung ergab, dass negative Lexeme in den Kommentaren sich nicht unbedingt auf die Marke Apple oder das iPhone beziehen, sondern gegen andere Kommentatoren gerichtet sind, und dass unter den Schreibern ein reger Dialog stattzufinden scheint, der auf starken Gegenpositionen basiert. Somit war eine kritische Situation f{\"u}r die Marke Apple in den Foren nicht gegeben. Aus diesen Betrachtungen ergibt sich die Fragestellung, warum die Unternehmenskommunikation in den Foren kaum auf Interesse st{\"o}ßt bzw. was dort stattdessen stattfindet. Hierzu wird analysiert, wer wie oft und mit wem kommuniziert, indem Dialogparameter wie L{\"a}nge und H{\"a}ufigkeit per Schreiber im Gesamtkorpus statistisch betrachtet und die Dialogstrukturen detailliert herausgearbeitet und visualisiert werden. Aufbauend darauf wird auf inhaltlicher Ebene qualitativ beleuchtet, wor{\"u}ber sich die Schreiber insbesondere bezogen auf das Markenimage von Apple austauschen. Darauf aufbauend wird beleuchtet, inwieweit sich eine Markenidentifikation und damit eine Verteidigung der Marke Apple in den Kommentaren ausmachen l{\"a}sst.}, language = {de} } @misc{Finzel2012, author = {Finzel, Anna Magdalena}, title = {English in the linguistic landscape of Hong Kong : a case study of shop signs and linguistic competence}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-64125}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Especially for the last twenty years, the studies of Linguistic Landscapes (LLs) have been gaining the status as an autonomous linguistic discipline. The LL of a (mostly) geographically limited area - which consists of e.g. billboards, posters, shop signs, material for election campaigns, etc. - gives deep insights into the presence or absence of languages in that particular area. Thus, LL not only allows to conclude from the presence of a language to its dominance, but also from its absence to the oppression of minorities, above all in areas where minority languages should - demographically seen - be visible. The LLs of big cities are fruitful research areas due to the mass of linguistic data. The first part of this paper deals with the theoretical and practical research that has been conducted in LL studies so far. A summary of the theory, methodologies and different approaches is given. In the second part I apply the theoretical basis to my own case study. For this, the LLs of two shopping streets in different areas of Hong Kong were examined in 2010. It seems likely that the linguistic competence of English must be rather high in Hong Kong, due to the long-lasting influence of British culture and mentality and the official status of the language. The case study's results are based on empirical data showing the objectively visible presence of English in both examined areas, as well as on two surveys. Those were conducted both openly and anonymously. The surveys are a reinsurance measuring the level of linguistic competence of English in Hong Kong. That level was defined before by an analysis of the LL. Hence, this case study is a new approach to LL analysis which does not end with the description of its material composition (as have done most studies before), but which rather includes its creators by asking in what way people's actual linguistic competence is reflected in Hong Kong's LL.}, language = {en} } @article{Roeder2011, author = {R{\"o}der, Katrin}, title = {Mobiles Gl{\"u}ck in den englischen Romanen des 18.

Dieses Thema hat zweifellos grunds{\"a}tzliche und auch andauernde Bedeutung f{\"u}r das Leben in unserer globalisierten Welt. Gleichzeitig unterliegt es schnellem Wandel und entzieht sich wegen seiner Komplexit{\"a}t einer einfachen Urteilsbildung. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass ein Reader als eher geschlossenes Medium dem Charakter des Themas nicht ausreichend gerecht werden kann. Die Spezifik der CD-ROM dagegen erlaubt st{\"a}ndige Aktualit{\"a}t und eine gr{\"o}ßere Vielfalt der Materialien. Dies sind Voraussetzungen f{\"u}r eine zeitgem{\"a}ße Qualit{\"a}t selbstst{\"a}ndiger Lernt{\"a}tigkeit und f{\"u}r die Teilnahme der Lernenden an der Gestaltung des Unterrichts. Erwartet wird zudem eine Motivationssteigerung, da das Medium per se f{\"u}r jugendliche Lernende eine besondere Attraktivit{\"a}t besitzt. Das Thema ist in mehrfacher Hinsicht durch den Rahmenlehrplan Politische Bildung f{\"u}r die Sekundarstufe I legitimiert. Es dient der Konkretisierung und damit Vertiefung des Themenfeldes "Gesellschaft/Sozialstruktur" (insbesondere Ausl{\"a}nder- und Einwanderungspolitik - Klasse 9). Dar{\"u}ber hinaus kann das Thema durchaus als sinnvoller Beitrag des Faches Politische Bildung zu den {\"u}bergreifenden Themenkomplexen "Friedenssicherung, Globalisierung und Interkulturelles" sowie "Fremdenfeindlichkeit, Rechtsextremismus und Gewalt" betrachtet werden. Die CD-ROM eignet sich ebenfalls f{\"u}r ein f{\"a}cherverbindendes Projekt (Politische Bildung und Englischunterricht bzw. auch Informatik — Klasse 10) und als bilinguales/ englischsprachiges Modul im muttersprachigen Politikunterricht. Allgemeines Ziel der Arbeit mit der CD-ROM ist es, die Lernenden "zum selbstst{\"a}ndigen politischen Sehen, Beurteilen und Handeln zu bef{\"a}higen" (Handbuch der politischen Bildung, Hrsg. Wolfgang W. Mickel, Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r politische Bildung, Bonn 1999, S. 384). Es ist beabsichtigt, dass die Lernenden Multikulturalit{\"a}t als wichtigen politischen Sachverhalt erkennen und anerkennen, ihn aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln betrachten und zu einem sachlich begr{\"u}ndeten Urteil gelangen. Dazu bietet die CD-ROM Impulse, die sich auf Ereignisse aus der Alltags- bzw. Vorstellungswelt der Jugendlichen und damit deren Erfahrungen richten. Die Diskussion eigener Erfahrungen und ihre Erweiterung um die Perspektiven anderer Akteure ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung politisch verantwortungsbewussten Handelns. Die CD-ROM ist in f{\"u}nf Module gegliedert: Modul 1 Introduction to the Concept of Multiculturality and Other Related Concepts hat einf{\"u}hrenden Charakter und dient der Kl{\"a}rung themenrelevanter Begriffe. Modul 2 Migration Patterns informiert {\"u}ber die Entwicklung der Migration in Europa seit den 50er Jahren und konkretisiert und aktualisiert dies f{\"u}r Deutschland und Großbritannien. Modul 3 Ethnic Population Structure in Berlin and London gibt einen {\"U}berblick {\"u}ber die Bev{\"o}lkerungsstruktur in Berlin und London und vergleicht diese. Modul 4 Living Conditions widmet sich den Auswirkungen von Migrationsbewegungen (Modul 2) und daraus entstandenen Bev{\"o}lkerungskonstellationen (Modul 3) auf die Lebenssituation der T{\"u}rken in Berlin und der Kariben in London. Modul 5 Multiculturalism Revisited fordert zu nochmaliger, eigenst{\"a}ndiger Auseinandersetzung mit dem Konzept des Multikulturalismus auf. Die bisherigen Erkenntnisse sollen zu einem begr{\"u}ndeten pers{\"o}nlichen Urteil synthetisiert werden. Die Module bauen sachlogisch aufeinander auf und beziehen sich aufeinander. Daher ist eine Bearbeitung in der vorgeschlagenen Reihenfolge sinnvoll. M{\"o}glich ist nat{\"u}rlich auch die Bearbeitung einzelner Module. In diesem Fall sollte die Lehrperson vorab pr{\"u}fen, wie Bez{\"u}ge zu anderen, nicht bearbeiteten Modulen durch entsprechende Hilfestellung kompensiert werden k{\"o}nnen. Die CD-ROM unterst{\"u}tzt das Lernen auf vielf{\"a}ltige Weise: In einem Glossary sind themenrelevante Fachbegriffe in englischer und deutscher Sprache erkl{\"a}rt. Das hilft den Lernenden, ggf. unterschiedliche Konzeptualisierungen in den beiden Sprachen zu erkennen, und f{\"o}rdert bilinguales Lernen. Eine Wordlist (English - German/German - English) ist als schnelle Hilfe beim Textverstehen gedacht, nicht zur systematischen Wortschatzarbeit. F{\"u}r letztere bietet die CD-ROM einen Link zum OALD Online-Dictionary an. Eine Liste mit n{\"u}tzlichen Links erleichtert das selbstst{\"a}ndige Aktualisieren von Informationen. Die References f{\"u}hren die Lernenden an Methoden wissenschaftlichen Arbeitens heran und erm{\"o}glichen eine fundiertere Bewertung der jeweiligen Quellen. Durch verschiedene Gestaltungselemente wie Musik- und Videoclips, gesprochene Sprache, Fotos und Cartoons werden die Lernenden multisensorisch aktiviert.

Research into any language may be enlightening with regard to the understanding of all languages, and languages that show similar features are particularly likely to provide useful information. It is remarkable that the structural similarities between Insular Celtic and Afro-Asiatic languages continue to be interpreted as diagnostic of some sort of special relationship between them; some sort of affinity or mutual affiliation that goes beyond the fact that they are two groups of human languages. This paper investigates again the fallacious nature of the arguments for the Afro-Asiatic/Insular Celtic contact theory (henceforth AA/IC contact theory). It takes its point of departure from Gensler (1993). That work is as yet unpublished, but has had considerable resonance. Such statements as the following indicate the importance that has been attached to the work: "After the studies of Morris-Jones, Pokorny, Wagner2 and Gensler it seems impossible to deny the special links between Insular Celtic and Afro-Asiatic" (Jongeling 2000:64). And the ideas in question have been propagated in the popular scientific press,3 with the usual corollary that it is these ideas that are perceived by the interested but non-specialist public as being at the cutting edge of sound new research, when in fact they may simply be recycled ideas of a discredited theory.

On the other hand, Gaulish continued to be written for some three centuries and was probably used in speech even longer, especially in rural areas. We must therefore posit a prolonged period of bilingualism. The effects of this situation on the Latin spoken in the provinces of Gaul seem to have been rather limited. A number of lexical items, mostly from the field of everyday life, and some phonetic characteristics are the sole testimonies of a Gaulish substratum in the variety of Latin that was later to develop into the Romance dialects of France (cf.

It is not our intention to argue with this consensus, nor to examine specific points of grammar in detail, but, rather, to suggest an approach to this question which (a) takes for its empirical base a sample of the standard language, rather than dialectal material or the sample sentences so beloved of many papers on the subject, and (b) understands Celticity not just in terms of the formal transfer of grammatical features, but as an indexical feature of language use, i.e. one in which English in Ireland is used in such a way as to point to the Irish language as a linguistic and cultural reference point. In this sense, our understanding of Celticity is not entirely grammatical, but relies as well on Pierce's notion of indexicality (see Greenlee 1973), by which semiotic signs 'point to' other signs. Our focus in assessing Celticity, then, derives in the first instance from an examination of the International Corpus of English (ICE). We have recently completed the publication of the Irish component of ICE (ICE-Ireland), a machinereadable corpus of over 1 million words of speech and writing gathered from a range of contexts determined by the protocols of the global International Corpus of English project. The international nature of this corpus project makes for ready comparisons with other varieties of English, and in this paper we will focus on comparisons with the British corpus, ICE-GB. For references on ICE generally, see Greenbaum 1996; for ICE-GB, see especially Nelson, Wallis and Aarts 2002; and for ICE-Ireland, see papers such as Kirk, Kallen, Lowry \& Rooney (2003), Kirk \& Kallen (2005), and Kallen \& Kirk (2007). Our first approach will be to look for signs of overt Celticity in those grammatical features of Irish English which have been put forward as evidence of Celtic transfer (or of the reinforcement between Celtic and non-Celtic historical sources); our second approach will be to look at non-grammatical ways in which texts in ICEIreland become indexical of Celticity by less structural means such as loanwords, code-switching, and covert reference using 'standard' English in ways that are specific to Irish usage. We argue that, at least within the standard language as we have observed it, Celticity is at once less obvious than a reading of the dialectal literature might suggest and, at the same time, more pervasive than a purely grammatical approach would imply.}, language = {en} } @incollection{Stalmaszczyk2007, author = {Stalmaszczyk, Piotr}, title = {Prepositional possessive constructions in Celtic Languages and Celtic Englishes}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-19253}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {2007}, abstract = {Extract: [...] One of the often noted characteristic features of the Celtic languages is the absence of a singular verbal form with the meaning 'to have'.1 The principal way of expressing possession is through periphrastic constructions with prepositions (such as Irish ag, Scottish Gaelic aig 'at'; Welsh gan, Breton gant 'at, with') and appropriate forms of the substantive verb. Pronominal prepositions, another distinctive feature of the Celtic languages, consist of a preposition and a suffixed pronoun, or rather a pronominal personal ending. This construction may be analyzed as an instance of category fusion. Thus, the Irish and Welsh equivalents of English 'I have money' are T{\´a} airgead agam or Mae arian gen i, respectively, both literally meaning 'is money at-me/with-me'. This note discusses pronominal possessive constructions in Celtic languages (and some comparable examples from Celtic Englishes) and provides some background information on pronominal prepositions and comments on historical developments of these forms.

To add new material, two supplements were issued after this, the first in 1933, and another, more extensive one between 1972 and 1986. In 1989, the Oxford English Dictionary, second edition (OED2) was published, which integrated the material from the original dictionary and the supplements into a single alphabetical sequence. However, virtually all material contained in this edition still remained in the form in which it was originally published. This is the edition most commonly used today, as it forms the basis of the Oxford English Dictionary Online and is also still being sold in print and on CD-ROM. In 1991, a new project started to revise the entire dictionary and bring its entries up to date, both in terms of English usage and in terms of associated scholarship, such as encyclopaedic information and etymologies. The scope was also widened, placing a greater emphasis on English spoken outside Britain. The revision of the dictionary began with the letter M, and the first updated entries were published online in March 2000 (OED3).

However, the fact that he wrote in Danish meant that his discovery was not noted by the linguistic establishment until long after his untimely death in 1832. The same conclusion was arrived at independently of Rask and, apparently, of each other, by Adolphe Pictet (1836) and Franz Bopp (1837). This agreement between the foremost scholars made possible the completion of the picture of the spread of the Indo-European languages in the extreme west of the European continent. However, in the Middle Ages the speakers of Irish had no awareness of any special relationship between Irish and the other Celtic languages, and a scholar as linguistically competent as Cormac mac Cuillenn{\´a}in (†908), or whoever compiled Sanas Chormaic, treated Welsh on the same basis as Greek, Latin, and the lingua northmannorum in the elucidation of the meaning and history of Irish words.

But this general stance should not lead to a complete neglect of other levels. When considering a multi-level phenomenon such as language contact and shift, concentration on a single linguistic level can have the unintended and unfortunate consequence of missing linguistically significant generalisations. This is especially true of the main division of linguistic research into a phonological and a grammatical camp, where syntacticians miss phonological generalisations and phonologists syntactic ones. In the present paper the interrelationship of syntax and prosody is investigated with a view to explaining how and why certain transfer structures from Irish became established in Irish English. In this context, the consideration of prosody can be helpful in explaining the precise form of transfer structures in the target variety, here vernacular Irish English. The data for the investigation will consider well-known features of this variety, such as unbound reflexives, non-standard comparatives and tag questions. Furthermore, the paper points out that, taking prosodic patterns into account, can help in extrapolating from individual transfer to the community- wide establishment of transfer structures.

I then argue that 19th and 20th-century attempts by scholars and militants to rehabilitate the Breton language led to the creation of a unified standard (peurunvan).2 The consequence has been the rise of a three-way diglossic rapport between the speakers of French, the new Breton standard3 and those of the traditional Breton vernaculars. Taking the varieties of southern Cornouaille (Finist{\`e}re) between Quimper and Quimperl{\´e} as a point of comparison,4 I focus on a number of phonological, morphological, syntactical and lexical features which, though far from exhausttive, are not generally taken into account in the new standard language.

The lists reflect a society in which the four languages, Irish, English, Latin and French, vied as scholarly media and where the outcome in the Earl's library was a four-way photo-finish. The number of volumes in each of the languages was recorded as follows: Latin, 34; French, 35; English, 22; Irish, 20 (Mac Niocaill 1992: 312-314). But of course the multilingual contact situation in Ireland had always been quite dynamic, both at vernacular and at scholarly levels, following the Anglo-Norman invasion of 1169. Although French continued to be employed in official documents into the second half of the 15th century, it had already ceded its vernacular role to English in the towns of the colonists prior to the drawing up of the Statutes of Kilkenny in 1366. These Statutes, composed in Norman-French, the primary language of English law at the time, provide an earlier snapshot of the language situation within the areas under English jurisdiction, as they sought to compel the colonists to desist from adopting Irish as a community vernacular. Ironically, no mention is made of Norman-French in the Statutes themselves.
