Abstract:

Editor's Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced title.

Now in its fourth edition, Andrew Carnie's Syntax: A Generative Introduction
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. Students are provided with numerous
exercises and pedagogical features designed to strengthen comprehension,
review learning objectives, test knowledge, and highlight major issues in the
field.

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.
