13Joint ResearchResearch ResourcesTraining Young Scholars/Publicizing Research ResultsSummary Construction of Shared Research Resources for Korean Historical Linguistics(Coordinator: Ito, Chiyuki) AIM OF PROJECT : This project aims to analyze various aspects of Korean historical linguistics, such as phonology, morphology, syntax, philology of Old, Middle and Modern Korean, and to construct shared research resources while developing analytic tools of the Korean database.WORK PLANNED : 1) Periodic meetings where the latest research results of the collaborators are presented. 2) Publication of working papers on Korean historical linguistics. 3) Designing several programs/techniques to deal with Korean historical texts efciently. 4) Further development of the Korean linguistics website.http://www.krling.com Indonesian Manuscript Project(Coordinator: Miyazaki, Koji) AIM OF PROJECT: The aim of this project is to explore new perspectives in the studies on Indonesian cultures, societies and languages, by developing methods of using Indonesian manuscripts as the source of study. It is also planned to train young researchers in these elds. WORK PLANNED: Focus is put on Javanese manuscripts in this three years project. Thorough research on catalogues and existing inventories, the project members, in collaboration with researchers overseas, will contribute to constructing a database of Javanese manuscripts and corpora which will form the basis for further studies on Java. It is planned to expand the scope of the project to the manuscripts written in other Indonesian languages, after the three years activities of the project.Human Society in Evolutionary Perspectives –Stage 2 : “Institution”(Coordinator: Kawai, Kaori) This project aims at developing theoretical perspectives on the nature of human society, paying due attention to comparisons along the evolutionary axis between non-human primates and human societies. It will contribute in this connection to rethinking the plausible extent to which “culture” plays in the formation of characteristically human society. As the second stage of the long-term research project, the focus will be on the “institution”, following the “group” as the focus of the rst stage.This project is scheduled to run for three years, and workshops will be opened ve times a year. Discussion will be concentrated on the nal theoretical achievement of this project. The project will also prepare for publication of the collection of papers that resulted from the project.Reconstructing Grammatical Phenomena from the Viewpoint of Tibeto-Burman Langauges – Stage 2 : Characterization and Classication of Sentences (Coordinator: Sawada, Hideo)The project studies structural and functional aspects displayed by sentences of Tibeto-Burman (TB) languages. It is designed for members describing TB languages to share facts relevant to sentences they have uncovered, and the width and depth of perspective of observation, thereby advance descriptions by each members and enrich on understanding of sentences of TB languages. We plan to have three meetings this year. Members are to make a presentation on the sentences of their object languages, especially focusing on the classication of verb sentences with respect to speech-act types, the possible types of non-verb sentence and the distribution of copula (if any). Next year we will discuss the concepts and factors crucial to the descriptions of sentences of TB languages. Contents of the meetings such as summaries of each report are publicized on our website. The publication on sentences of TB languages is also planned. http://www.aa.tufs.ac.jp/~sawadah/grph-tb/
