The Language of the Old-Okinawan <i>Omoro Sōshi</i>: Reference Grammar, with Textual Selections de Leon A. Serafim

The Language of the Old-Okinawan <i>Omoro Sōshi</i>: Reference Grammar, with Textual Selections: Languages of Asia, cartea 21

Autor Leon A. Serafim, Rumiko Shinzato
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 mar 2021
The Omoro Sōshi (1531–1623) is an indispensable resource for historical linguistic comparison of Old Okinawan with other Ryukyuan languages and Old Japanese. Leon A Serafim and Rumiko Shinzato offer a reference grammar, including detailed phonological analyses, of the otherwise opaque and dense poetic/religious language of the Omoro Sōshi.

Meshing Western linguistic insight with existing literary/linguistic work in Ryukyuan studies, and incorporating their own research on Modern Okinawan, the authors offer a grammar and phonology of the Omoro language, with selected (excerpts of) songs grammatically analyzed, phonologically reconstructed, translated, and annotated.
