Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on formal grammar theories, this book presents an in-depth exploration of various linguistic frameworks, including Phrase Structure and Transformational Grammar, using German as the primary example. It discusses how these theories handle syntactic elements like arguments, adjuncts, and constituent movement. The second part critically evaluates language acquisition theories, including nativism, while addressing key theoretical debates such as branching structures and the role of abstract entities in syntax. The work aims to bridge gaps in the literature and offers a comprehensive overview for students of syntactic theory.
