"The first volume of its kind, students and scholars will be delighted with this comprehensive guide to a wide range of topics in Korean linguistics. The authorial team represents the very best scholarship today, including senior scholars and a younger generation of researchers, both breaking new ground in emerging areas like linguistic politeness, language acquisition, and linguistic anthropology."
Ross King, University of British Columbia, Canada "Rich in information and delightfully readable, this book includes an amazing array of topics, analyses, and authors. An unprecedented primer on the structure of the Korean language, it also introduces general linguistic theory and approaches to the study of language."
Young-Key Kim-Renaud, George Washington University, USA The Handbook of Korean Linguistics presents state-of-the-art overviews of linguistic research into the Korean language. The volume is divided into six sections: The Sounds of Korean; Korean Morphology and Syntax; Syntax, Semantics, and their Interface; Discourse, Pragmatics, and Grammaticalization; Language Acquisition; and Varieties of Korean. The editors have brought together contributions from a wide range of international authors, allowing for a variety of theoretical viewpoints as well as coverage of topics such as proto-Korean, present-day language policies in North and South Korea, social aspects of Korean as a heritage language, honorifics, and an in-depth study of syntactic phenomena of the language. The first authoritative reference work of its kind in the field, this
Handbook is certain to become a key resource for researchers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates studying Korean linguistics or linguistic typology.
