               Mouton de Gruyter * Berlin * New York

The book presents a collection of papers by Takesi Sibata, one of the
leading linguists in Japan and a pioneer in the field of Japanese
sociolinguistics.  While incorporating numerous ideas from Western
linguistics, Japanese sociolinguistics has developed largely
independently from Western tradition. The volume not only makes
accessible the work of a most influential scholar but, at the same
time, provides an overdue introduction to the field of Japanese
sociolinguistics.
