1. Mark_Mandel, Chinese Linguistics; Complete words of Luo Changpei

The complete works of Luo Changpei will be published in 1999 by
Shandong Education Publishing House in China. A commemorative
meeting will be held in Beijing on the hundredth anniversary of
the author's birth, August 9, 1999. On the same occasion the Luo
Changpei Linguistics Scholarship Foundation will be announced.

Luo Changpei was one of the founders of modern linguistics in
China. He stood on the shoulders of the giants in this field and
explored diverse branches of the science. He was in the first
generation of linguistic scientists from the Institute of History
and Philology of the Academia Sinica. He established the Institute
of Linguistics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, assumed
its direction and was nominated academician. His contribution is
historic.

The Anthology includes the author's published and unpublished
works in ten volumes, of which the first six are books and the
last four monographs. Each volume has an editorial acknowledgement
and postnote. Annexed to Vol. X are a biographical outline and two
indexes, one by alphabetic order, the other by stroke.
