semantic and discourse considerations. Umlaut Phenomena in Early New High German Discourse is an investigation of the spread and regularization of umlaut in Early New High German that focuses on semantic and pragmatic influences. In a detailed analysis of excerpts from three texts - Brant's Narrenschiff, von Tepl's Ackermann von Böhmen, and Luther's Sendbrief vom Dolmetschen - lexical items displaying variation in umlaut spelling are compared in an attempt to isolate discourse factors that influenced the choice of each variant. This work differs from other studies on umlaut in that, on the basis of evidence from these Early New High German texts, it postulates that the development of umlaut was not only a phonological matter, but was in fact significantly influenced by semantic and discourse considerations.

The auxiliary do (tun) is one of the most-discussed constructions in West Germanic. In German, there is a striking opposition between modern standard German, where the construction is virtually ungrammatical and considered to be "sub-standard" by most speakers, whilst, as this book shows, the construction is attested in all modern dialects as well as historic stages since 1350. In answering why auxiliary tun is ungrammatical in modern standard German, it is shown that the stigmatization of tun was caused by prescriptive grammarians in the 16th-18th century. Furthermore it is shown that the stigmatization of tun as "bad" German occurred in clearly discernible stages, from bad poetry (1550-1680), to bad written German (1680-1740) and finally to "bad" German in general (after 1740), thus providing evidence that the history of the standardization of German needs to take into account direct metalinguistic comments from prescriptive grammarians. The effectiveness of linguistic purism is also shown by evidence from two other constructions, namely polynegation and double perfect.

Scholarly treatments of umlaut (i-mutation) in Old High German observe, as far back as the earliest handbooks (e.g., Braune 1886), that *hC clusters tend to block umlaut of short *a to e, but stop short of regarding the fronting and raising of short a 2!e before *i(:) or *j ("primary umlaut") as a diachronically intermediate step between Germanic raising of e before i (e.g., pre-Gmc *nemizi 2!PGmc *nimizi 'du nimmst') and the more comprehensive fronting of long *ā and back vowels before *i ("secondary umlaut"). By obtaining and analyzing data on the success rate of orthographic umlaut with respect to various phonological and morphological environments, this dissertation lays the groundwork for painting a more nuanced picture of the evolution of German umlaut in accordance with the "Wisconsin School" view (Buccini 1992, Iverson & Salmons 1996, Howell & Salmons 1997) that primary umlaut is to be regarded not as a monolithic sound change but as gradual process that began in certain environments and later spread to others. I examine tokens from two major OHG texts (Otfrid's Evangelienbuch and two different MSs of the German-Latin glossary Abrogans) as well as three shorter texts with diverse chronological and geographical origins (the OHG Isidor, the Murbacher Hymnen, and the poetic fragment Muspilli). Besides marking for the obvious features (umlauted vowel written as e, trigger as , and intervening consonants), I also assign the morphological relationship between trigger and umlautable vowel to one of four categories that represent diminishing presence of an umlaut trigger in the paradigm: Root trigger: megin 'strength' 0!*magin-a- Stem trigger: steti 'place (DAT)' 0!*stad-i- Inflectional trigger: ferit 'goes' 0!*far-i-d Derivational trigger: kihenkitha 'agreement' 0!*ga-hang-iþō- The resulting data attest different manifestations of primary umlaut between the source texts but parallel overall patterns in the phonological and morphological spread of umlaut of short *a in Old High German, which can shed critical light on how the process of primary umlaut originated
