Abstract:

In this book, Peter Juul Nielsen examines the foundations of morphological
theory from a structural-functional perspective on language as a sign system.
He offers a framework for the analysis of morpheme relations based on a
thorough discussion of syntagmatic and paradigmatic structure, indexical
relations, zero as meaningful absence and morphological relations across
grammatical categories. It is argued that when paradigmatically related
morphological structures have different syntactic functions, the semantics of
the paradigmatic opposition consists in the specification of functional
potential. The framework is applied in three detailed studies of Danish
nonfinite verbs presenting new accounts of their morphological structure,
semantic coding and paradigmatic organisation.
