Abstract:

This is the first book that presents a complete empirical description and
theoretical analysis of all major classes of derived adjectives in Spanish,
both deverbal and denominal. The reader will find here both a detailed
empirical description of the syntactic, morphological and semantic properties
of derived adjectives in contemporary Spanish and a cohesive
Neo-Constructionist analysis of the syntactic and semantic tools that
contemporary Spanish has available to build adjectives from other grammatical
categories within a Nanosyntactic-oriented framework. In doing so, this book
sheds light on the nature of adjectives as a grammatical category and argues
that adjectives are syntactically built by recycling functional heads
belonging to other categories. The book will be useful both to researchers in
Spanish linguistics or theoretical morphology and to advanced students of
Spanish interested in the main ways of building new adjectives through
suffixation in this language.
