Descrizione articolo

Riassunto:

Drawing upon recent theoretical developments and empirical discoveries, The New Comparative Syntax provides coherent and comprehensive introduction to generative research in this fast growing field. Professor Haegeman brings together ten chapters to illustrate the new approach to comparative grammar which has developed against the background of the Principles and Parameters model. The contributors show how this framework guides empirical research by seeking to reveal the underlying grammatical basis for similarities and differences between languages and language groups. Throughout the text, attention is drawn to the ways in which empirical study feeds into theory construction, raising new questions for the overall conceptual framework and sometimes providing new solutions.
