Abstract:

The objective of the collection of articles presented in this volume is to
provide a representative and meaningful selection of present research work on
Classical Chinese Grammar. Since the articles cover a temporal range from the
Pre-Classical to the Medieval period, the term 'Classical Chinese' is used in
a more generous sense.

Two different but representative lines of research are predominant in this
collection: the first focuses on the lexicon of Chinese, and the second
focuses on its syntax or on the interface of its syntax and its semantics.
Regarding the history of grammatical studies of Chinese, the first approach
can be considered as a continuation and refinement of the traditional Chinese
linguistic studies with new linguistic tools; the second approach follows and
enhances the syntactic approach first proposed for the analysis of Chinese in
the grammar of von der Gabelentz. In addition to these two general fields, a
third and innovative field of research is included, focusing on the
stratification of different linguistic registers in the Ancient Chinese
language. With its selection of articles, this volume represents the
multifaceted approaches presently employed to study the lexicon and the
grammar of Classical Chinese, and it demonstrates the great progress the
employment of different theoretical frameworks has induced in the analysis of
the grammar Classical Chinese in recent times. This volume intends to convey
the relevance of a meticulous and detailed study of the structural properties
of Classical Chinese and to demonstrate that this study has to go beyond the
mere analysis of apparent similarities. (Harrassowitz Verlag 2016)

also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either

Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department

procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
