Studies in Chinese Language, the eighth volume in the Collected
Works of Professor M. A. K. Halliday, approaches the Chinese
language from several interesting vantage points, ranging from
studies of medieval to modern grammar, phonology, and discourse.
Professor Halliday's doctoral thesis, 'The Language of the Chinese,
Secret History of the Mongols, provides the basis for the first
section of this volume, with extracts from the book as well as the
original Chinese text, which is one of the earliest known texts
written in Mandarin, included in full on the accompanying online
resources. The second section focuses on modern Chinese grammar,
while the third looks at Chinese phonology. The final section,
Grammar and Discourse', includes papers on grammatical metaphor and
scientific discourse in both Chinese and English.
