Language Planning as a Sociolinguistic Experiment - The Case of Modern Norwegian - Bok av Ernst Håkon Jahr - Inbunden
2014 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of the Norwegian nation following centuries of Danish rule. This book offers an account of that entire 200-year period, and analyses how Norwegians defined, fought over, and developed their own independent Scandinavian language, differentiating it from Danish and Swedish, through language planning.
