Abstract

The focus of my paper is syntactic. It analyses different functions and positions of uninflected words, more precisely prepositions and adverbs, in the fifteenth-century correspondence. The Cely Letters (1472-88) constitute the basis for the analysis, but some examples are also drawn from the letters of the Paston and Plumpton families.
