The Historical Development of the Types of the First Person Plural Imperative in German: A Dissertation Submitted to the Philosophical Faculty of the ... of Doctor of Philosophy (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores the development and usage of the first person plural imperative form in German from 9th century Old High German to the early modern period. The author examines religious texts, specifically biblical translations, to trace the evolution of various types of this grammatical form. The study shows how the type gen persisted from Old High German into the Middle High German period, while the type gen wir, which emerged in the 10th century, became more frequent and eventually replaced gen. The author also discusses the emergence of the types sollen, wir sollen gen, lasst uns gen, and wir wollen gen. The book situates this grammatical development within the broader context of Germanic and provides a detailed analysis of the factors that influenced the emergence and spread of these forms. By examining how the first person plural imperative has been used in German over time, this book offers insights into the grammatical and linguistic history of the German language.
