A Wealden Round Robin

The Country of Kent, situated in the south-east corner of England, is famous for the “white cliffs of Dover” which face the French coast only 20 miles away. In the centre of the Country there is an area known as The Weald, often referred to as “the garden of England” as it is abundant in the growing of fruit of all kinds and until the 1970’s grew most of the hops used in the production of English beer. Our fictional story concerns the lives of a variety of residents in a typical village in this area immediately prior to the 2nd World War and throughout until its end in 1945; their romance, successes, failures, disappointments and tragedies. The author lived throughout this period in a village in The Weald of Kent.

Studies in Linguistic Analysis

The Linguistic Individual

Linguists usually discuss language or dialects in terms of groups of speakers. Believing that patterns can be seen more clearly in the group than the individual, researchers often present group scores with no indication of the variation within the group. Even though linguists acknowledge that no two individuals speak alike, few study individual variation and voice. Barbara Johnstone makes a case for the individual's importance and idiosyncrasies in language and linguistics. Using theoretical arguments and discourse analysis, along with linguistic examples from a variety of speakers and settings, Johnstone illustrates how speakers draw on linguistic models associated with class, ethnicity, gender, and region, among others, to construct an individual voice. In doing so Johnstone shows that certain important questions in sociolinguistics and pragmatics can only be answered with reference to individual speakers. Johnstone's study is important both for the understanding of speech as expressive of self, and for the study of variation and mechanisms of linguistic choice and change.
