Christopher I. Beckwith delves into the fascinating world of the Koguryo language, a once-vibrant tongue spoken in the regions of Manchuria and Korea. Through careful examination, he uncovers the rich history and cultural significance of this language, shedding light on its connections to the broader context of East Asian linguistics.

Beckwith's exploration not only highlights the linguistic features of Koguryo but also places it in dialogue with its continental relatives, revealing the intricate tapestry woven by language and culture in this part of the world. This work serves as both an academic resource and a compelling narrative for anyone intrigued by the roots of language and its historical implications.
