Abstract:

English morphophonology has aroused considerable interest in the wake of
Chomsky and Halle’s ground-breaking The Sound Pattern of English (1968).
Various theoretical models have subsequently emerged, seeking to account for
the stress-placement and combinatorial properties of affixes. However, despite
the abundance and versatility of research in this field, many questions have
remained unanswered and theoretical frameworks have often led their proponents
to erroneous assumptions or flawed systems. Drawing upon a 140,000-word corpus
culled from a high-performance search engine, this book aims to provide a
comprehensive and novel account of the stress-assignment properties, selection
processes, productivity and combinatorial restrictions of native and
non-native suffixes in Present-Day English. In a resolutely interscholastic
approach, the author has confronted his findings with the tenets of Generative
Phonology, Cyclic Phonology, Lexical Phonology, The Latinate Constraint,
Base-Driven Lexical Stratification, Complexity-Based Ordering and Optimality
Theory.
