Yearbook of Morphology 1997, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1998 Yearbook of Morphology Series

Interest in morphology has revived in recent years and the Yearbook ofMorphology has provided great support for this revival, with its articles on topics that are central to the current theoretical debates.
The Yearbook of Morphology 1997 focuses on the relationship between morphology and other modules of the grammar, especially phonology, syntax and semantics. Among the basic questions discussed are: how does morphology differ from other modules of the grammar, syntax in particular? What are the possible forms of interaction between the modules? How does semantics constrain formal variation in morphology? The evidence adduced is derived from a variety of languages.
Audience: Theoretical, descriptive and historical linguists, morphologists, phonologists, and psycholinguists.
