Description

Ever since his encounter as a student with L. Wieger’s Chinese Characters: Their origin, etymology, history, classification and signification , Vernon Fowler has devoted himself to understanding the origins of the Chinese script. Based meticulously on Chinese and Japanese scholarship, combined with Western advances in historical phonology, the present work is the fruit of his studies. It provides a fascinating and comprehensive exploration of what is the oldest pictograph-based script to be still in common use.
