BURNED, DWELLED, DREAMED: THE EVOLUTION OF A MORPHOLOGICAL AMERICANISM AND THE ROLE OF PRESCRIPTIVE GRAMMAR WRITING.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This article investigates the variation between past-tense forms burned/ burnt, dwelled/dwelt, dreamed/dreamt, and the like historically with the help of the Corpus of Historical American English and asks whether prescriptive grammars in the nineteenth century may have influenced the development of regular forms as a present-day morphological Americanism. Contrary to what is often assumed, this article argues that the irregular forms are the actual innovations and that the return to regular forms is found in writing only and is highly lexeme-specific. Also contrary to expectations, prescriptive grammar writing is shown to have been mostly ignorant of which verbs were undergoing change, in which direction, and to which degree, and prescriptive grammar writing could not have been instrumental in supporting, let alone triggering, the development of this morphological Americanism.

The post about the 10th century grammar is by Sophie Schmidt

The title of the article is Aelfric's English Grammar, by Melinda Menzer

# data[].attributes.body
I have found a very interesting article about a 10th grammar of Latin, but written in English.
The topic is fascinating, the article is easy to read and to understand. It has got lots of Old English example (they are explained, don't worry), which I really like.
The author, although she does not belong to a minority group, is a very interesting person. She is a great swimmer, and swam from Texas to Mexico (across the border) across the Armistad Reservoir. It took her 6 hours! She did that to raise awareness for the refugee crisis in America and to raise fund for a charity that helps migrants.
If you would be interested in reading the article, I can give you the reference (it is available from JSTOR).

This is a link to the manifesto published by students at Kent last year, with more information on the importance of having reading lists that reflect the diversity of the student body, and why having all-white readings lists is particularly harmful.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Students from the Decolonise the Curriculum project at the University of Kent conducted research (with the help of staff members Dr. Suhraiya Jivraj, Sheree Palmer and Dave Thomas) through engagement with the students from various schools around the campus to draft this manifesto.

This manifesto voices the concerns of the students of colour / Black Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds.

This manifesto shows what we want to see changed at our university through the curriculum as well the instituion itself.

This Manifesto is what is necessary in order to #DecoloniseUKC.
