Expanding the comparative view
Humboldt’s Über die Kawi-Sprache and its language materials
Wilhelm von Humboldt’s Über die Kawi-Sprache auf der Insel Java can be seen as the first comparative
grammar of non-Indo-European languages. While Humboldt’s practice of collecting and re-assembling linguistic information has been documented
extensively in the Berlin Academy edition of his Schriften zur Sprachwissenschaft, this article puts his work in
perspective by tracing it back to its sources and treating it as part of a wider parallel process of expanding the comparative view. In
three sections, this article discusses (1) the research agendas of the three British colonial scholars upon whose works Humboldt drew for
Malayan languages; (2) to which extent his Polynesian language material was ‘rawer’ than these compendia; and (3) how he reworked this
material into a comparative Malayo-Polynesian grammar. Finally, a comparison is drawn with the work of his assistant and continuator Eduard
Buschmann, and with Horatio Hale’s slightly later survey of the languages of the Pacific.
