Thesis (Ph.D.)--Michigan State University, 1999.

This dissertation examines the social evolution of French and its changing relationship with other languages (or dialects) within France. More specifically, we explore literature as a trace of the development of language perception in the emergence of a distinct French society. We then empirically investigate the present situation of language perception among respondents in Paris, the center of the French norm. While linguistic policy and language institutions are discussed, the historical overview section focuses primarily on literature.

520 $a This dissertation examines the social evolution of French and its changing relationship with other languages (or dialects) within France. More specifically, we explore literature as a trace of the development of language perception in the emergence of a distinct French society. We then empirically investigate the present situation of language perception among respondents in Paris, the center of the French norm. While linguistic policy and language institutions are discussed, the historical overview section focuses primarily on literature.
520 $a Because of its status as both socio-cultural artifact and as linguistic evidence (in other words, as both creator of linguistic perception and repository of linguistic exempla) literature is a fitting object for the historical section of this study. Literary works helped create and reinforce the image of standard French as the prestige dialect and the accompanying image that other languages within metropolitan France were linguistically inferior and that speakers of these varieties had cognitive deficiencies. Over time, the complicity of literature in the maintenance of linguistic norms, whether prescriptive or social, became secondary to the literary artist's need to create new forms.
520 $a The generic and creative diversity of French literature since the mid-nineteenth century make tracing a coherent linguistic perception of regional variety less feasible than with earlier works. In recent times, the state of regional linguistic perception has become less clear, and is best examined instead through an empirical study. The findings of this study, conducted in 1995, comprise the second part of this dissertation. Using a newly-designed model for characterizing the perception of dialects, the second part of this dissertation analyzes interviews of speakers in Paris. More than simply a reiteration of the perceptions outlined in the literary survey, this empirical study adds detail and depth, while also illustrating that the monument of a dominant dialect's power over dominated languages can take at least as long to dismantle as it did to build.
