Omtale
Dr Arnason shows that in Modern Icelandic vowel length is determined by syllabic quantity, which is in turn defined by stress and hecalls into question the validity and theoretical status of existing 'explanations' of linguistic change. This is then a study for those interested in Scandinavian languages but it has wider theoretical implications for all historical linguists.
