Dear Colleagues,

 

    Re: Hohepa and Hale on Maori

 

    Would you please help me?

    If I remember correctly, more than 40 years ago, Patrick Hohepa wrote an article (or a book?) on Maori and K. L. Hale wrote a review of it.

    Also, if I remember correctly, either Hohepa or Hale claimed as follows: 

 

In Maori, passive constructions were used excessively and consequently they ceased to be passives and they became unmarked constructions.

 

    My requests are the following.

 

(1) Would you have bibliographical information on Hohepa’s article (or a book?)?

(2) Would you have a copy of Hohepa’s article (or a book?)?

(3) Would you have bibliographical information on Hale’s review?

(4) Would you have a copy of Hale’s review?

(5) Did Hohepa or Hale make a claim about Maori passives as shown above?

(6) Would you know any other work that is relevant to this claim?

(7) Would you have a copy of that work?

 

    I would appreciate your help.

 

Best wishes and thanking you in advance,

 

Tasaku Tsunoda
