The Dialect And Folk-Lore Of Northamptonshire - Thomas Sternberg - Bog

""The Dialect and Folk-Lore of Northamptonshire"" is a comprehensive study of the language and traditions of the English county of Northamptonshire. Written by Thomas Sternberg, a linguist and folklorist, the book explores the unique dialects and idioms of the region, as well as the customs, superstitions, and beliefs of its people. The book is divided into two parts: the first focuses on the dialect of Northamptonshire, including its pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while the second delves into the county's rich folkloric traditions, such as its legends, songs, and customs. Sternberg's work is based on extensive research and includes numerous examples of Northamptonshire dialect and folklore, making it an invaluable resource for linguists, historians, and anyone interested in the cultural heritage of the English Midlands.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
