Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating process of compiling a Karen language dictionary in the mid-19th century. The author, a dedicated missionary, embarked on a remarkable journey to document and preserve the Karen language, a language spoken by an ethnic group residing primarily in Myanmar and Thailand. The text offers a unique window into the challenges and triumphs of linguistic documentation during a time when written resources were scarce. The author meticulously collected Karen words from various sources, including existing Burmese dictionaries, the knowledge of native Karen speakers, and his own interactions with the Karen community. The result is a comprehensive collection of Karen vocabulary, accompanied by definitions and examples that illuminate the richness and complexity of the language. This book is an invaluable resource for those interested in the Karen language, Southeast Asian linguistics, and the history of missionary work. It sheds light on the intricate process of language preservation and the profound impact of cultural exchange between missionaries and the communities they served. The author's dedication to understanding and documenting the Karen language serves as a testament to the enduring power of human connection and the importance of preserving cultural heritage. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780260347084_0
