This book is a study in language stability, a field §which has been largely neglected despite having been §identified as central to the general study of §language variation and change. Icelandic, which is §regarded by many as a prime example of a stable §language, is chosen as a vehicle for an examination §of this field. A study, involving a number of §alleged ongoing changes in modern Icelandic, is §conducted in order to determine whether or not the §language can still be characterized as stable and to §identify the conditions which support its potential §stability. The results indicate that Icelandic can §indeed still be seen as a stable language §and that this is due e.g. to a generally §negative attitude towards language change amongst §speakers of Icelandic, strong §linguistic nationalism and a stability-oriented §language policy. In a more general §context the book thus provides a valuable insight §into the sociolinguistic conditions which support §language stability and should §be useful for students and researchers with an §interest in language variation and change.
