Bücher der Reihe Oxford Surveys in Syntax & Morphology

Presents a critical comparison of morphosyntactic change and the mechanisms that trigger it. This book shows how changes in discourse, lexicon, semantics, pragmatics, and sound interact with changes in morphosyntax, and considers the interface between the internal and external factors of change.

Provides an introduction to information structure and discusses a range of phenomena on the syntax-information structure interface. This book examines whether information structure maps onto syntax, and if so how. It covers such topics as architectures of grammar, word order, the lexicon and information structure interface, and cognitive aspects.

This book provides a critical and practical guide to computational techniques for handling morphological and syntactic phenomena, showing how these techniques have been used and modified in practice.
