Money, prestige and the development of standard German.
Cleek, John Harold.

Money, prestige and the development of standard German. - 221 p.

Chair: Irmengard Rauch.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 2002.

Several theories have been proposed to account for the various historical, sociological and technological factors that combined in the Early Modern period to produce a standard written German language. Martin Luther has been traditionally called “The Father of the German Language”, yet this reputation is now considered to be largely a product of Romantic and nationalistic thought that climaxed in the nineteenth century. The importance of the chanceries, especially that of Charles the IV in Prague, has also been cited, a theory which stresses the impact of the scribal tradition based largely on Latin. Other theories have focused on the movements of colonists from the German-speaking lands into regions of economic importance and the leveled form of language that resulted. This view emphasizes the role of spoken language, the habits of average speakers and their every-day activities as factors contributing to the standardization process. Over the course of the last century, and especially since the movement in the 1930s known as American Structuralism, linguists, particularly sociolinguists, have examined the role of power and authority in language change with respect to the standardized written languages of organized, technologically advanced societies. Here, standard languages are seen to be the result of struggles for power by various groups, of societal pressures to succeed, and of the human desire to innovate and seek prestige. Thus, examination of those forms of language used in arenas of prestige and by persons in positions of power may offer the most useful insight into the standardization process.

520 $a This study examines the influence of banking and money matters on the standard German language, tracing both language internal and language external factors throughout the history of recorded German. Legal texts from the Old High and Middle High/Middle Low German period are examined, as are business documents from the Early New High German period. The study concludes with a 1999 fieldwork investigation of the jargon of bankers and other professionals working in the areas of international finance. It evaluates language change in the context of European integration and increased language interference.
