Produktbeschreibung

Front cover: Title: Morphology Subtitle: From Data to Theories Authors: Antonio Fábregas and Sergio Scalise Back cover (please note that series blurb has changed slightly and that title and author names should no longer appear on the back covers for this series) EDINBURGH TEXTBOOKS ON THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE - ADVANCED Series Editor: Heinz Giegerich Books in this series provide readers with a detailed description and explanation of key areas of English Language study. The authors presuppose a basic working knowledge of the topic and explore aspects of the linguistics of English for an advanced student readership. 'The ideal textbook for encouraging advanced students to question the issues of morphological units and the relation of morphology to other linguistic fields. This volume should be an essential part of any graduate course in morphology.' Angela Ralli, Professor of General Linguistics, University of Patras 'The authors provide helpful guidance in the analysis of various morphological data and the related theoretical issues that play a role in the present debate on morphology and its place in the architecture of grammar.' Geert Booij, Professor of Linguistics, Leiden University Centre of Linguistics When it comes to defining the place of morphology and the lexicon in the architecture of grammar or to providing evidence about the existence of morphology as an independent module, most textbooks ignore some of the most recent developments in syntax - both in Construction Grammar and in the Minimalist Program - which have helped reframe the discussion about the Lexical Integrity Hypothesis and related issues. This textbook redresses the balance by discussing morphology and its processes within a general framework that will incorporate the most recent developments in the field, but also in their relation with syntax, lexical semantics and phonology. It pays particular attention to the debate between lexicalism and constructionism, and provides open activities designed to help students start their own original research and stimulate their own thinking over the morphology of their languages. By presenting the latest theories and highlighting the current challenges in morphology, upper level undergraduate and postgraduate students will find this textbook an invigorating and inspiring resource. Antonio Fábregas is Full Professor of Spanish Linguistics at the University of Tromsø. Sergio Scalise is Full Professor of General Linguistics at the University of Bologna.
