Prerequisites / Organisational information
Das Hauptseminar gehört in folgenden Studiengängen jeweils zu folgenden Modulen:
  • MA English Studies: Modul 10 Language Variation

  • MA Linguistik: Modul 2/11 Language Variation

The participants are required to prepare small research projects at home at a regular basis.

Contents
This class complements the advanced-level seminar "Scots – Past and Present".

In recent years, an increasing number of (online) resources on Present-Day and historical Scots have been made available, e.g. the Scottish Corpus of Texts & Speech (SCOTS), the Corpus of Modern Scottish Writing (CMSW), the Helsinki Corpus of Scottish Correspondence (1540–1750) (ScotsCorr) or the Scots Syntax Atlas (SCOSYA).
In this class, the participants will discover the various resources and learn to use them for small research projects. They will thus acquire generally applicable research skills with a particular focus on Scots and English in Scotland. These skills will assist them with the term paper projects arising out of the seminar "Scots – Past and Present".
