Abstract
This paper examines genitive variation in English, using two methodological approaches. In the manual approach, we extract genitive variants from the parsed sub- corpora of the text category J (academic writing) in the B-Brown (1931), the Brown (1961) and the Frown (1991/2) corpora. Focussing on the syntactic parameter, we illustrate how the principle of end-weight gains ground from 1930 to 1990. The automatic approach implements the constraints of the manual approach, confirms the findings of the manual approach and is used to scale
