Abstract:

Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced title.
Proposing a novel theory of parts of speech, this book discusses
categorization from a methodological and theoretical point a view. It draws on
discoveries and insights from a number of approaches - typology, cognitive
grammar, notional approaches, and generative grammar - and presents a
generative, feature-based theory. Building on up-to-date research and the
latest findings and ideas in categorization and word-building, Panagiotidis
combines the primacy of categorical features with a syntactic categorization
approach, addressing the fundamental, but often overlooked, questions in
grammatical theory. Designed for graduate students and researchers studying
grammar and syntax, this book is richly illustrated with examples from a
variety of languages and explains elements and phenomena central to the nature
of human language.
 



1. Theories of grammatical category; 2. Are word class categories universal?;
3. Syntactic decomposition and categorizers; 4. Categorial features; 5.
Functional categories; 6. Mixed projections and functional categorizers; 7. A
summary and the bigger picture; Appendix. Notes on Baker (2003).
