کتابچهٔ دو در دستور زبان چینی کلاسیک: مقدمه‌ای بر دستور زبان چینی کلاسیک

A handbook grammar of Classical Chinese. From inside the book: "The core of this work is the previously unpublished Introduction to Classical Chinese Grammar written in 1978 by Archie Barnes, who taught Classical Chinese at Durham University for over 20 years. ... Following Archie's death in 2002, Graham Ormerod, a member of one of the last classes of students Archie taught before his retirement, agreed with Archie's wife, Marie, who also happened to be a member of the same class, to prepare for publication some of the works Archie had produced in manuscript. ... To supplement the texts [of Fifty Chinese Stories], he produced a structure-based analysis of how Classical Chinese expresses some key linguistic concepts (the copula, numerals, demonstratives, tenses, adverbs, relative clauses, etc.). ... instead of working from Chinese, it started from the English linguistic concepts and explained how Classical Chinese expressed these. ... During the course of editing Graham Ormerod became convinced, and I agreed, that it would be very useful to supplement the grammar with a section on 虛詞 xūcí ‘empty words’, i.e. words whose function is primarily grammatical. ...

A comprehensive, example-fi lled section on the uses and meanings of over 60 function characters provides rich material for the more advanced student; particularly since it does not shirk from offering differing interpretations. With the provision of full tonal pinyin throughout and a glossary of all characters used, this is the only Classical Chinese grammar which is both stand-alone and userfriendly.
