‘Vind jij dat we over andermans leven mogen beslissen?’ Adam heeft eigenlijk wel andere dingen aan zijn hoofd wanneer een nieuwe klant hem met deze gewetensvraag confronteert. Moet hij wel doorgaan met zijn leven als escort, zeker nu zijn moeder plots is overleden? En wat betekenen de onbeantwoorde liefdesbrieven die hij op haar zolder heeft gevonden? Kan het zijn dat ze tot haar dood over de identiteit van zijn vader heeft gelogen? Vastberaden gaat hij op zoek naar de mysterieuze afzender van de brieven en de waarheid over zijn verleden. Toch laten de woorden van de klant hem intussen niet los. Hoe vaker hij Matthias Lybeer ontmoet, hoe meer Adam ervan overtuigd geraakt dat de ambitieuze hoogleraar een misdaad beraamt. De spanning loopt steeds hoger op, tegen het decor van een rivaliteit tussen professoren die het hele land in de ban houdt. Wat is Lybeer van plan? Wie speelt dubbel spel? Wie draait wie een rad voor de ogen, en waarom? En slaagt Adam erin het onheil te voorkomen? Oude wonden is een spannende misdaadroman over onverwachte banden tussen mensen, waarin niemand zijn verleden ontloopt.

Cognitive Sociolinguistics is a novel and burgeoning field of research which seeks to foster investigation into the socio-cognitive dimensions of language at a usage-based level. Advances in Cognitive Sociolinguistics brings together ten studies into the social and conceptual aspects of language-internal variation. All ten contributions rely on a firm empirical basis in the form of advanced corpus-based techniques, experimental methods and survey-based research, or a combination of these. The search for methods that may adequately unravel the complex and multivariate dimensions intervening in the interplay between conceptual meaning and variationist factors is thus another characteristic of the volume. In terms of its descriptive scope, the volume covers three main areas: lexical and lexical-semantic variation, constructional variation, and research on lectal attitudes and acquisition. It thus illustrates how Cognitive Sociolinguistics studies both the variation of meaning, and the meaning of variation.

This volume aims to overcome sub-disciplinary boundaries in the study of linguistic variation - be it language-internal or cross-linguistic. Even though dialectologists, register analysts, typologists, and quantitative linguists all deal with linguistic variation, there is astonishingly little interaction across these fields. But the fourteen contributions in this volume show that these subdisciplines actually share many interests and methodological concerns in common. The chapters specifically converge in the following ways: First, they all seek to explore linguistic variation, within or across languages. Second, they are based on usage data, that is, on corpora of (more or less) authentic text or speech of different languages or language varieties. Third, all chapters are concerned with the joint analysis (also sometimes known as "aggregation" or "data synthesis") of multiple phenomena, features, or measurements of some sort. And lastly, the contributors all marshal quantitative analysis techniques to analyse the data. In short, the volume explores the text-feature-aggregation pipeline in variation studies, demonstrating that there is much mutual inspiration to be had by thinking outside the disciplinary box.
