The Language and Literature of China (Classic Reprint): Two Lectures Delivered at the Royal Institution of Great Britain in May and June, 1875 - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores the Chinese language, both its written and spoken forms. It begins by examining the Chinese writing system and the history of its development, from its origins in pictographs to the sophisticated system of characters used today. The author then discusses the sounds of the Chinese language, and the way in which they are represented in writing. The book also covers the grammar of Chinese, and the way in which words are combined to form sentences. Drawing on historical texts and inscriptions, as well as modern speech, this book gives a clearer picture of the Chinese language and its long history than ever before. Its insights will appeal to anyone interested in the history of writing, the development of language, or the culture of China.
