This book is an introduction to the syntactic structures that can be found in the Germanic languages. The analyses are couched in the framework of HPSG light, which is a simplified version of HPSG that uses trees to depict analyses rather than complicated attribute value matrices. The book is written for students with basic knowledge about case, constituent tests, and simple phrase structure grammars (advanced BA or MA level) and for researchers with an interest in the Germanic languages and/or an interest in Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar/Sign-Based Construction Grammar without having the time to deal with all the details of these theories.…mehr

Autorenporträt
Stefan Müller studied Computer Science, Computational Linguistics and Linguistics at the Humboldt University at Berlin and in Edinburgh. He worked at the German Research Center of Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) in Saarbrücken and for the company Interice. He worked as acting chair for German and Computational Linguistics in Jena and for Theoretical Computational Linguistics in Potsdam. He had an assistant professorship in Bremen for theoretical linguistics and computational linguistics, a full professorship for German and General Linguistics at the Freie Universität Berlin and is now professor for German language with specialization in syntax at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. His main research topic is German grammar. He works both empirically and theoretically. Topics of interest are morphology, syntax, semantics, and information structure. He published mainly about German, but he also works on other languages as for instance Mandarin Chinese, Danish, Maltese, and Persian. The theoretical work is carried out in the framework of Head-¿Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG) and the theoretical analyses are implemented in computer-¿processable grammar fragments. The grammar fragments that are implemented in the CoreGram Project use a common core. One goal of his research is to understand language and to find out what languages in general and certain language classes in particular have in common.
