Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This accessible introduction to morphology explores word structure and presents a comprehensive overview of major theoretical debates within the field. The book compares key approaches to morphological structure on a continuum rather than as isolated theories. Fully updated, the third edition includes discussions of morphological phenomena across various languages, examines the interfaces between morphology and syntax, as well as morphology and phonology. A new chapter on "Doing morphological analysis" outlines principles of descriptive analysis, while expanded exploratory exercises challenge readers beyond chapter content. Additionally, new online materials offer data sets corresponding to the exercises, guidance for tackling them, and extended illustrations of descriptive morphological analysis. Each of the twelve chapters features a summary, further reading suggestions, and exercises with answers. With its theoretical discussions and balanced approach, this book serves as an ideal resource for linguistics students and researchers in morphology seeking a clear overview of the subject.
