Learning objectives

The course sets out to examine the heated debates about language that characterised the eighteenth century and which contemplated the choice between different standardisation solutions. It will also evaluate the changes introduced in linguistic practice which varied according to the phonetic, syntactic, morphological and lexical levels.

Prerequisites

Knowledge of Russian.

Course unit content

The course presents a number of stages of the historical development of Russian literary language, with particular reference to the creation of a new literary norm in the eighteenth century. The course will begin by examining the development of old Russian in broad outline, from the reorganisation of the phonological system to morphological change and an overview of historical syntax. This will be followed by a reading and commentary of passages in various linguistic registers.
