Abstract:

Editor's Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced title.

Korean has proven to be an invaluable language to theoretical linguists,
providing abundant examples of, and counterexamples to, key theoretical issues
at the forefront of modern linguistic theories. Exploring the Korean language
from both a syntactic and semantic perspective, this book provides an
up-to-date linguistic analysis of its structure, combining Minimalist Syntax
with accompanying compositional formal semantics. EunHee Lee's detailed
chapters cover the core architecture and phenomena of Korean, looking at the
lexical layer, the functional layer, nominal structure, movements and complex
clauses. A broad range of empirically and theoretically important phenomena
are discussed, enabling students and professional linguists alike to
understand the workings of the language in current theoretical frameworks. The
book also includes discussion questions, exercises and a list of further
reading to solidify the theoretical concepts, stimulate thinking and develop
the ability to analyze Korean using theoretical tools.
