A Bibliography of Philippine Linguistics - SIL International

Introduction
This bibliography is, in fact, a combination of several earlier bibliographic works:
Doris Barner Welsch's Checklist of Philippine Linguistics in the Newberry Library, Jack
H. Ward's A Bibliography of Philippine Linguistics and Major Languages, Nobleza C.
Asuncion-Lande's A Bibliography of Philippine Linguistics, Nelly I. Cubar's The Philip-
pine Linguistic Landscape: 16th-19th Centuries. Vladimir A. Makarenko's A Preliminary
Annotated Bibliography of Pilipino Linguistics (1604-1976), C. Richard Gieser's Bibliog-
raphy of the Summer Institute of Linguistics, Philippines 1953-1988, Marlies Salazar's
European Studies of PhiIippine Languages and Gail R. Hendrickson and Leonard E.
Newell's A Bibliography of Philippine Language Dictionaries and Vocabularies.
Since this editor used other bibliographies as source materials and not the actual works
themselves, a number of discrepancies were found between different sources which cited
the same work. With the help of Dr. Andrew Gonzalez, FSC, an attempt was made to find
out which has the correct information. However, any errors found within are the sole
responsibility of the editor.
Some authors have entries under more than one name (i.e. maidenlmarried or reaYpseu-
donyrn), or they were a secondary author. So there is cross-referencing to these entries. Each
entry has a number set off in the right column and the range of entry numbers for a given
page are found in the header to make finding an entry easier.
Not all bibliographies agreed on how to list authors, particularly Hispanic names. In
this work names like Pedro de la Cruz Avila are listed as Avila, Pedro de la Cruz. However,
Lorenzo Hewas y Panduro is listed as Hewas y Panduro, Lorenzo. Names like Georg von
der Gabelentz are listed as Gabelentz, Georg von der.
Because of the size of the bibliography, the index by languages only lists the entry
numbers from the bibliography. Because many languages have a large number of works
about that language, each language section of the index is further divided into subcategories
according to the kind of material each work covers.
1. GRAM - Grammar
2. PHON - Phonemics (including morphophonemics)
3. MOR - Morphology
4. SYN - Syntax
5. LEX - Lexical (including dictionaries, word lists and vocabularies)
6. DIS - Discourse
7. SEM - Semantics
