Abstract:

The many facets of agreement

Pavel Caha, Pavel Rudnev, Svetlana Toldova (eds.)
Masaryk University, HSE University, HSE University

Agreement is a phenomenon that spans multiple areas of linguistic theorizing.
On the one hand, agreement has been regarded as purely syntactic/morphological
phenomenon because it has no clear contribution to meaning. However, this
clashes with the observation that agreement may also influence interpretation
in subtle ways, allowing languages to express nuances in meaning that would
otherwise get lost. The book addresses the phenomenon of agreement and its
place in the grammar from multiple linguistic perspectives. The individual
chapters in this book investigate the question what we can learn about the
general process of agreement based on the detailed study of its syntax,
semantics and morphology, including its production/processing by the human
brain.
