Abstract:

This study is an attempt to reorient the field of Chinese linguistics from the
perspective of the new field of cultural interaction studies. The author,
approaching Chinese linguistics from the periphery, examines such topics as
the spread of Western learning and linguistic contact and Westerners' study of
Chinese: He studies materials produced by Western missionaries and Ryukyuan
materials to show the validity and usefulness of Chinese linguistics in the
field of cultural interaction studies. In addition, he looks at cultural
interaction through illustrations. (V&R Academic 2017)
