Kanji : the Structural Variations of Radicals

In English

Författare

  • Marcus Klingborg

Summary, in Swedish

The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate and analyse some of the radicals utilized in the kanji of the Japanese language. These are radicals that have more than one variation of their shape and may be positioned in different locations within the character, at times depending on the structural variation of the radical. The radicals will therefore be analysed in order to try and discover if there are any specific practical linguistic reasons behind these variations or if it coincidentally emerged during history. This analysis will be made by first offering a historical perspective and facts and then a linguistic part with linguistic theory and analysis.
