A Comparative Study of Address and Reference Terms Found in the Prayers of Protestantism and Buddhism.

Hyeon-seok Kang

Abstract

This study, on the basis of 200 prayers of Protestantismnand Buddhism, examines address and reference terms for the objects of worshipnthat are observed in each religion. The goals of this research were to investigaten1) what are the types of address and reference terms used in Protestant andnBuddhist prayers, 2) whether the differences between the two religions in thenaddress and reference terms derive from distinct philosophical or doctrinalnbackground. Buddhist prayers were analyzed as using more various address termsnfor the objects of worship than Protestant prayers. Kinship address terms werenused in a higher rate than in Protestant prayers, while the egalitarian type ofnaddress and reference terms were observed in Buddhist prayers alone. The latterndifference is suggested by the researcher as originating from a disparity betweennthe two religions in the relationship of worshipper and worshipped. In addition,nstyle differences were observed between the two religions; in particular, vocativenpostpositions were significantly more frequently used in Buddhist prayers, givingnexclamatory impressionistic effects to the prayers. Finally, whereas similarnnumbers of address and reference terms for the objects of worship were foundnin Buddhist prayers, more than thrice as many reference terms were observednas address terms in Protestant prayers, which reflects the Protestant worshippers'neffort to interact continuously with the diety during the prayer. Some linguisticnand sociolinguistic implications of the results are also discussed. (232 words)
