Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the little-known languages and peoples of the Indo-Chinese peninsula, the vast region that lies between India and China. The author, a British official stationed in Burma, provides a detailed analysis of the major language families of this area and their speakers. The author argues that the Mon-Anam group, which includes the Mon, Khmer, and Vietnamese languages, is distinct from the Tibeto-Burman and Tai families, and that it has its origins in the earliest populations to settle in the region. The author also discusses the historical and cultural influences that have shaped these languages and their speakers, including the impact of Indian religions, the Chinese empire, and the arrival of European traders and colonists. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the languages, cultures, and history of Southeast Asia.
