520    "English local documents - leases, wills, accounts, 
       letters and the like - provide a unique resource for 
       historical sociolinguistics. Abundant from the early 
       fifteenth century, they represent the language and 
       concerns of people from a wide range of social, 
       institutional and geographical backgrounds. However, as 
       relatively few documents have been available digitally or 
       in print, they have been an underresearched resource. This
       volume shows the tremendous potential of late- and post-
       medieval English local documents: highly variable in 
       language, often colourful, including developing formulae 
       as well as glimpses of actual recorded speech. The volume 
       contains eleven chapters relating to a new resource, A 
       Corpus of Middle English Local Documents (MELD). The first
       four chapters outline a theoretical and methodological 
       approach to the study of local documents. The remaining 
       seven present studies of different aspects of the material,
       including supralocalization, local patterns of spelling 
       and morphology, land terminology, punctuation, 
       formulaicness and multilingualism"--|cProvided by
