Abstract:

A logical and clear exposition of hierarchy and locality by a leading
figure in the field, Continuing Syntax takes students from an
introductory level of syntactic theory to an understanding of
cutting-edge research in the field. A comprehensive range of topics is
covered, including configurationality, head-movement, clause
structure, nominal structure, subjacency, barriers and phases,
ensuring that students have a thorough understanding of all the main
components of contemporary theory. The many example sentences,
extensive glossary, end-of-chapter exercises and annotated further
reading lists allow readers to embed and extend their knowledge as
they progress through the book. A self-contained work ideal for
intermediate-level students, this volume also builds on the author's
Beginning Syntax, and lays the foundation for a third volume,
Comparing Syntax, which introduces formal syntactic typology.
