Abstract:
The question of how to determine the meaning of compounds was prominent in
early generative morphology, but lost importance after the late 1970s. In the
past decade, it has been revived by the emergence of a number of frameworks
that are better suited to studying this question than earlier ones. In this
book, three frameworks for studying the semantics of compounding are presented
by their initiators: Jackendoff's Parallel Architecture, Lieber's theory of
lexical semantics, and Štekauer's onomasiological theory. Common to these
presentations is a focus on English noun-noun compounds. In the following
chapters, these theories are then applied to different types of compounding
(phrasal, A+N, neoclassical) and other languages (French, German, Swedish,
Greek). Finally, a comparison highlights how each framework offers particular
insight into the meaning of compounds. An exciting new contribution to the
field, this book will be of interest to morphologists, semanticists and
cognitive linguists.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
