Autorenporträt
Andrew Spencer is Professor of Linguistics at the University of Essex. He has published on the theory of morphophonology and on a variety of topics in morphology. He is currently working on argument structure alternations in Russian verb classes and their nominalizations. He is author of two textbooks, Morphological Theory and Phonology (both published by Blackwell Publishers). Arnold M. Zwicky is Professor of Linguistics at Stanford University and Ohio State University. He has published in all the major linguistics journals, with contributions to the fields of phonology, morphology, syntax and, perhaps most notably, the interrelations between these domains. He is particularly well-known for his contributions to morphophonological theory, inflectional morphology, and the theory of clitics. His first essays on clitics twenty years ago stimulated a flurry of research from a variety of scholars in what continues to be an important and developing area. In addition, he has edited a variety of collections on specific themes, including most recently serial verbs and second position clitics (with A. Halpern).
Rezensionen
"I'm enormously impressed by the scope and depth of The Handbookof Morphology. The coverage is broadly inclusive, withoutsacrificing depth in the discussion of individual issues. The rangeof topics covered shows us just how far the study of words, theirforms and their structures has penetrated into the core oflinguistics since the 1960s, when many thought there was nodistinct content to morphology, and everything interesting waseither syntax or phonology." Stephen R. Anderson, YaleUniversity

"Its range is outstanding. Every chapterprovides new insights and challenges. I think that, like itscompanion volume, The Handbook of Phonological Theory, it isdestined to become a standard reference in its field." LaurieBauer, Victoria University of Wellington

"The Handbook of Morphology, edited by two outstandingmorphologists, will be much appreciated by the linguistic communityat large. It will serve as a guide for graduate students inlinguistics, and for all those researchers who need a reliablesurvey of current issues and insights in morphology ... Spencer andZwicky should be thanked for having created such a fine researchtool for Linguistics." Geert Booij, Vrije UniversiteitAmsterdam

"This impressive volume is the first handbook of morphology.It's pioneering status is confirmed by an unprecedented range oftopics, not to be found in any existing monograph in the domain ofmorphology ... I do not know any other book which offers such easyaccess to all the basics of modern morphology and to such a widevariety of topics." W.U. Dressler, University ofVienna

"Strongly theoretic, the handbook is none the less pleasinglyrich in carefully explored data, and fits in well with the othervolumes in the series of Blackwell Handbooks in Linguistics"Forum for Modern Language Skills, Vol 39, 2003…mehr
