Abstract:

This volume analyzes morphological and morphonological phenomena from a 
number of distinct Slavic languages. It does so in an innovative manner, yet 
also positions the analysis in the context of current morphological debates. It is 
thus a valuable contribution both to comparative Slavic morphology and general 
morphological theory. Moreover, the book is the first attempt at a theory of 
conversion and subtraction relevant to languages with rich inflectional 
morphology. It contributes to our structural understanding of the nature of word. 
As the first illustration of subtraction with examples from southern Slavic 
languages, it is an excellent source of specialist data. The book's theoretical 
framework is easily accessible and applicable to other languages, which makes 
it attractive to researchers on Slavic languages and general linguists alike. The 
volume will also appeal to general morphologists, typologists, and advanced 
students in linguistics.
