This authoritative introduction explores the four main
non-transformational syntactic frameworks: Head-driven Phrase
Structure Grammar, Lexical-Functional Grammar, Categorial Grammar,
and Simpler Syntax. It also considers a range of issues that arise
in connection with these approaches, including questions about
processing and acquisition.
* An authoritative introduction to the main alternatives to
transformational grammar
* Includes introductions to three long-established
non-transformational syntactic frameworks: Head-driven Phrase
Structure Grammar, Lexical-Functional Grammar, and Categorial
Grammar, along with the recently developed Simpler Syntax
* Brings together linguists who have developed and shaped these
theories to illustrate the central properties of these frameworks
and how they handle some of the main phenomena of syntax
* Discusses a range of issues that arise in connection with
non-transformational approaches, including processing and
acquisition
