Book description:

Japanese and Korean are typologically quite similar, so a linguistic
phenomenon in one language often has a counterpart in the other. The
papers in this volume are intended to further compare and contrast
research in both languages.

This selection of papers reflects the Tenth Japanese/Korean
Linguistics Conference's unique division into five separate panels:
Cognition and Grammar; Discourse and Conversation; Historical
Linguistics and Grammaticalization; Phonetics and Phonology; and
Syntax and Semantics. This volume also acknowledges the work of
renowned linguist James D. McCawley (1938-1999) in the areas of
lexicography, syntax, semantics, phonology, pragmatics, philosophy of
language, and linguistic logic.

Contributors include Suk-Jin Chang, Sung Yeo Chung, Wesley M. 
Jacobsen, Susumu Kuno, S.-Y. Kuroda, Chungmin Lee, Miseon Lee, 
Seiichi Makino, Naomi Hanaoka McGloin, Katsuhiko Momoi, Michiko 
Nakamura, William O'Grady, Masayoshi Shibatani, Yoko Sugioka, Timothy 
J. Vance, and a variety of other scholars from the panels.
