Seller's Description:
Fine. 227 p. Contains: Illustrations. Pacific Linguistics, 550. Audience: General/trade. The Ninth International Conference on Austronesian Linguistics and the Fifth International Conference on Oceanic Linguistics were both held at The Australian National University in Canberra during the month of January, 2002. Rather than attempt the mammoth task of compiling a single collection of conference papers which would be quite diverse in scope the conference organisers favoured a series of smaller compilations on specific topical areas. This volume represents the first of these compilations, and contains ten papers in the area of Austronesian historical phonology, ranging from John Wolff's survey of the Proto Austronesian phonological system, which appears first in this volume, to detailed studies on individual languages or subgroups, arranged roughly geographically from west to east. It is hoped that this collection of essays will stimulate further study of a range of issues in Austronesian historical phonology.
