Grammatical variation in standard German, 1900-1999 : a contrastive corpus-linguistic study of Germany and Switzerland
Fingerhuth, Christian Matthias
. - 2017
Abstract:
This study examines the development of grammatical variation in German and Swiss Standard German during the 20th century in the framework of German as a pluricentric language, i.e. as a language with multiple regional or national standard varieties. Starting from features seen as specific for Swiss Standard German at the beginning of the 21st century, it traces the development of these features back to the beginning of the 20th century using written corpora of Standard German. The dissertation builds on a review of the history of the concept of and research on German as a pluricentric language, as well as a discussion of the concept of standard language. It then focuses on diglossia in German-speaking Switzerland, i.e. the contextspecific use of dialect and standard language, with a focus on the 20th century, and discusses the relevance of language in the construction of Swiss identity. Subsequently, the composition of the corpora used is discussed. In this context, the relevance of the use of different text types is discussed. The following analysis draws the following conclusions: (1) The data show no uniform development across the features investigated. (2) The Swiss corpus appears toshow more variation than the German corpus. (3) It is an exception that forms that are only used rarely in Switzerland in the beginning of the 20th century become dominant over the course of the 20th century. (4) Text type appears not to influence the use of variants in the Swiss corpus. The findings add to previous research and complicate the understanding of the development of variation in Standard German. In numerous instances, Swiss Standard German appears already distinct from German Standard German at the beginning of the 20th century. Comparison with recent studies further raises theoretical questions on the conception of standard language that may have consequences for future corpus design ; Germanic Studies
