Abstract:

The first comprehensive morphology textbook written in the framework
of Distributed Morphology, firmly grounded in cross-linguistic theory

Distributed Morphology is the theoretical framework that views
morphology as syntactic, proposing that there is no divide between the
construction of words and the construction of sentences. The first
text of its kind, Morphology: A Distributed Morphology Introduction
provides a thorough overview of Distributed Morphology using data and
problem sets from a diverse selection of the world's languages.
Divided into two parts, this valuable resource begins by describing
the basics of morphology and then moves into an exploration of more
advanced topics in morphology including morphosyntactic operations,
cyclic derivation, the Mirror Principle, and non-compositional
language. Each chapter includes a glossary of key terms, learning
objectives, further readings, and illustrative examples to reinforce
learning. Exercises and problem sets encourage students to develop
their understanding and build confidence in the application of theory
to practice. Through this valuable text, students will develop
comprehension in morphological parsing and glossing, the concept of
the lexicon, the different types of morphemes, the idea of paradigms,
the basic practice of morphological analysis, and more.

Offering detailed yet accessible coverage of morphological theory from
the perspective of Distributed Morphology, this textbook:

Introduces the methodology used in morphology, the basic assumptions
of Distributed Morphology, and key concepts from lexical grammatical
approaches to language
Covers essential phonology, feature interaction, paradigms as
linguistic objects, core ideas of syntax and syntactic derivation, and
derivation and inflection in Distributed Morphology
Includes a Quick Reference Guide with glossing abbreviations from the
Leipzig Glossing Rules, a full IPA chart with instructions, and charts
of phonological features
Provides access to a companion website containing solutions to problem
sets and additional instructor resources
Morphology: A Distributed Morphology Introduction is the ideal
textbook for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in
morphology courses or with an interest in specializing in morphology.
Offering students an unparalleled overview of this growing field of
morphology, this text will ensure that developing morphologists are
well-equipped to employ the latest methods in Distributed Morphology
to their own research and study.
