400 Years of Words and People [Vietnamese]

By: Hoang, Minh Tuong

This is a work about the sacred origins of the Vietnamese national script. In the 16th century, the Portuguese missionary Francisco de Pina arrived in Hoi An, Vietnam. After studying the Vietnamese language, he recognized its pure beauty and expressive power and began the task of transcribing Vietnamese using Latin characters. The work not only focuses on the work of the missionaries and the support of the scholar Dao Duy Tu, but also includes the events and fates of various historical figures. From this, you can see a comprehensive picture of Dai Viet society at that time.
