The first book to examine the language of coal miners in the East Midlands of England Examines the language of coal miners in the East Midlands Investigates an important aspect of intangible cultural heritage Explores the relationship of language and identity Coal mining, long one of the most important industries in the East Midlands, has now completely ceased in the UK. Although there is some attempt to keep hold of the artefacts which tell us about mining, mining language remains neglected. Research by Natalie Braber has shown that there is a variety of 'pit talk' which is distinctive to the East Midlands and this book explains the language used by miners in their everyday work and lives. This book will appeal to academics interested in language variation and change, language and identity, community heritage, fragmented communities and post-industrial societies.
