Abstract:

This pioneering research brings a new insight into derivational processes in
terms of theory, method and typology. 

Theoretically, it conceives of derivation as a three-dimensional system.
Methodologically, it introduces a range of parameters for the evaluation of
derivational networks, including the derivational role, combinability and
blocking effects of semantic categories, the maximum derivational potential
and its actualization in relation to simple underived words, and the maximum
and average number of orders of derivation. 

Each language-specific chapter has a unified structure, which made it possible
to identify – in the final, typologically oriented chapter – the systematicity
and regularity in developing derivational networks in a sample of forty
European languages and in a few language genera and families. This is
supported by considerations about the role of word-classes, morphological
types, and the differences and similarities between word-formation processes
of the languages belonging to the same genus/family.
