Description

This comprehensive first volume of a 5-volume set examines linguistics through the lens of Eastern traditions, exploring the social, cultural and religious functions of language across different societies. The work investigates language's role in education, the prestige attached to various language varieties, and detailed presentations of lexical and grammatical descriptions. Rather than imposing contemporary scientific frameworks, the volume respects each culture's own linguistic interests and assumptions, offering specialist insights into how different traditions have understood and analysed language. Ideal for scholars, linguists and students seeking a culturally grounded perspective on the history of linguistic thought beyond Western approaches.
