SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The first systematic study of sociolinguistic variation in seventeenth-century France. Drawing on a range of case studies, it makes available new data about linguistic variation in this period, showing the wealth and variety of language usage at a time considered to be the most 'standardizing' in the history of French.
