Scott traces the development of the genitive case in the two Germanic languages from the end of the medieval period to the present, assessing the relationship between an instance of morphosyntactic change affecting the languages and their standardization, and distinguishing between the function of the genitive and that of similar cases. His sources are from standard language, rather than any dialect, and cover a variety of registers and media to allow for pragmatic variation in using the various semantically equivalent prescribed and non-prescribed constructions. He compares early modern Dutch and modern German because of the similarity of their case systems. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)

In The Genitive Case in Dutch and German, Alan K. Scott offers an account of the tension between morphosyntactic change and codification, focusing on the effect that codification has had on the genitive case and alternative constructions in both languages.
