Frontmatter -- Preface -- Introduction to the Handbooks of Japanese Language and Linguistics -- Contents -- Contributors -- Introduction -- Part I: Prehistory and reconstruction -- 1 Reconstruction of Japonic and para-Japonic based on external sources -- 2 Ryukyuan and the reconstruction of proto-Japanese-Ryukyuan -- 3 Towards the prosodic reconstruction of proto-Japanese-Ryukyuan -- Part II: Phonology -- 4 Reconstruction of Old Japanese phonology -- 5 Old Japanese writing and phonology -- 6 Late Middle Japanese phonology, based on Korean sources -- 7 Late Middle Japanese phonology as reflected in early Japanese Christian documents -- 8 Sino-Japanese -- 9 The Ramsey hypothesis -- Part III: Grammar -- 10 Differential argument marking in Old Japanese: Morphology, semantics, and syntax -- 11 The syntax and morphology of Early Middle Japanese -- 12 Late Middle Japanese grammar -- 13 The historical changes in the case marking system of Japanese -- 14 Voicings of kakari-musubi: Shifting from cleft construction to referential predicate -- 15 Loss of wh-movement -- 16 Development of adverbial particles -- 17 The history of demonstratives -- 18 Vision and the verbs of visual perception in Man’yōshū: From mirativity to ‘mitate’ -- Part IV: Lexicon, Materials and Kanbun -- 19 The history of basic vocabulary in Japanese -- 20 The Japanese lexicon as reflected in Christian materials -- 21 What mokkan (wooden documents) can tell us about ancient Japanese language -- 22 Early Japanese dictionaries -- 23 Kunten texts of Buddhist provenance (butten 仏典): Their characteristics and actuality -- 24 Kunten texts of secular Chinese origin (kanseki 漢籍) -- 25 Japanized written Chinese: Its features and contribution to the history of the Japanese language -- 26 Early modern kanbun and kanbun-kundoku -- 27 The influence of kanbun-kundoku vocabulary on the Japanese language -- Index
Summary: This volume will be the first full-length exploration in any language of the details of the history of the Japanese language written by experts in the different subfields of linguistics. Overall, while including factual and background information, the volume will focus on presenting original research of lasting value. This includes presenting the latest research on better studied topics, such as segmental phonology, accent or focus constructions, as well as both introducing areas of study which have traditionally been underrepresented, such as syntax or kanbun materials, and showing how they contribute to a fuller understanding of all of the history of Japanese.
