Content:
Intra-individual variation is an emerging research field in linguistics with a rapidly growing number of studies. This volume comprises twenty-two research articles on a wide range of languages and periods, all closely connected by their focus on intra-writer variation in historical texts and by their use of empirical and corpus-based approaches.
