Cíle předmětu
The course gives the phonological development from Indo-European into Modern English, with occasional examples from Czech. Old English and Middle English are taught synchronically, as foreign languages, with a few diachronic excursions. The grammatical system of Old English is then compared with that of Modern English and Modern Czech. A similar pattern is applied on lexis, mentioning the Latin, Scandinavian and Norman/French influences. The core of the work in the seminars is in the reading of texts: after a few Old English texts the main attention is paid to Middle English, to "Canterbury Tales" by Chaucer. A specimen of Shakespearan English is included.
The main objectives of the course are to familiarise students with the development of English from the original synthetic to the present-day analytic language, to make them realise the sources of its lexical heterogeneity, and to understand the complex processes leading to its current phonological system.
