Description

Explore the linguistic history of eighth-century Japan with Azuma Old Japanese: A Comparative Grammar and Reconstruction. This scholarly work focuses on the two major dialects of Eastern Japan, known as Eastern Old Japanese and To-po-Suruga Old Japanese. As an exhaustive comparative reference grammar, this volume utilizes linguistic data from the Man'yoshushu poetic anthology (759 CE) to provide a detailed look at premodern Japanese dialects. It covers essential linguistic elements including various lexical categories, the lexicon, phonology, and historical development. This publication serves as a vital resource for researchers and students, filling a major gap in English language scholarship regarding the grammar of these historical dialects. Part of the Trends in Linguistics Documentation (TiLDOC) series, this volume is an essential addition to any academic collection focused on Japanese language study and historical linguistics.
