- Abstract
- In the 1930s, the Columbia and Barnard English departments created a program with the goal of cataloging "acceptable" dialects of American (and Euro-American) English, as well as creating resources to instruct Columbia students in "proper" English diction. Out of this program came the "Arthur the rat" passage (as heard in this recording) for use in linguistic cataloging and phonetic critique.
