This book is a comprehensive study on the phonetic characteristics
of citation tones in Chaoshan Chinese. It presents the tonal
patterns of 65 localities in the Chaoshan area under the
"multiple-register and four-level" tonal model. Three case studies
are conducted to delve into the evolutionary paths of Chaoshan
tones. This book not only provides a large-scale typological study
on Chaoshan Chinese, but also offers a good example of how to
figure out the evolutionary paths of tones from the perspective of
variation. The natural alliance of phonetics, historical
linguistics, sociolinguistics, and dialect geography is reinforced.
It is also suggested in this book that the joint use of these four
disciplines is very promising for the study of Chinese.
