Abstract:

This volume was originally inspired by a 2017 conference to honour the scholar
and linguist Cao Xuân Hạo, whose landmark work – in many diverse areas of
language study – established a bridge between traditional Vietnamese
scholarship and contemporary theories of grammatical organisation. The book
offers the reader a closely edited collection of papers, representing a wide
spectrum of frameworks, approaches and methods, from traditional fieldwork
studies of non-standard dialects, to corpus-based discussions of language and
gender, to formal syntactic and semantic analyses of key functional morphemes,
to laboratory experiments, and work in first language acquisition. Many of the
papers present detailed analyses of original data, as well as novel treatments
of established facts; considered together – as well as in contrast to one
another – they make a significant empirical contribution to our understanding
of how Vietnamese is structured, acquired and put to use. The papers should be
of value to anyone interested in contemporary approaches to Vietnamese
linguistics, and Southeast Asian languages more generally.
