| Summary, etc. |
"Andrew Carnie's bestselling 'Syntax : A Generative Introduction' has provided the starting point for the careers of an entire generation of syntacticians. Now in its fourth edition, this popular textbook remains the leading introduction to the rules, principles, and processes that determine the structure of sentences in language. Comprehensive yet accessible, the text provides a well-balanced, student-friendly introduction to syntactic theory. Topics include phrase structure, the lexicon, binding theory, case theory, movement, covert movement, locality conditions, ditransitives, verbal inflection and auxiliaries, ellipsis, control theory, non-configurational languages, and more. Designed to support and reinforce student comprehension, this text features a wealth of pedagogical tools, including learning objectives, discussion questions, and problems of varying levels of difficulty. The fourth edition features revised material throughout, including a new section on Chomsky's Merge and additional problem sets in every chapter, while new examples throughout the text broaden the appeal and relatability of the text to a more diverse set of students. The optional supporting text 'The Syntax Workbook : A Companion to Carnie's Syntax' has also been thoroughly revised and expanded to offer students the opportunity to practice the skills and concepts introduced in the primary text. In the new fourth edition, 'Syntax : A Generative Introduction' remains an essential textbook for beginning syntacticians, perfect for undergraduate and graduate course in linguistics, grammar, language, and second language teaching."--adapted from back cover<br/> |
