Description and Explanation in Korean Linguistics

This volume brings together fifteen new papers on Korean linguistics originally presented at the Ninth International Conference on Korean Linguistics, 1994. Contributions range from phonetics and phonology, to syntax and grammaticalization, and address important theoretical issues from a wide variety of formal frameworks. The volume contains new research by established scholars like Gregory Iverson, Young-key Kim-Renaud, Susumu Kuno, and Joan Maling, as well as papers by relative newcomers to the field: Sung-ock Sohn, Jae-Hoon Yeon, Mark Vincent, Chang-Bong Lee and Yoon-suk Chung. The papers in this volume will be of interest to students and researchers in both general linguistics and Korean language and linguistics.
