This site is designed for my students--undergraduates with limited linguistic knowledge who are being introduced to the Great Vowel Shift.  There are topics I do not discuss in this site because they are too basic, too complicated, or too controversial for this audience.  I hope that this site will be useful to you and welcome your comments and suggestions.  Please keep in mind that I am a beleaguered assistant professor who is unable to tinker with the site full-time.
