Abstract:

After being dominant during about a century since its invention by Baudouin de
Courtenay at the end of the nineteenth century, morpheme is more and more
replaced by lexeme in contemporary descriptive and theoretical morphology. 
The notion of a lexeme is usually associated with the work of P. H. Matthews
(1972, 1974), who characterizes it as a lexical entity abstracting over
individual inflected words. Over the last three decades, the lexeme has become
a cornerstone of much work in both inflectional morphology and word formation
(or, as it is increasingly been called, lexeme formation). The papers in the
present volume take stock of the descriptive and theoretical usefulness of the
lexeme, but also adress many of the challenges met by classical lexeme-based
theories of morphology.
