Simpler Syntax
ISBN: 9780199271092 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 608 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Offering a compelling perspective on the structure of the human language, this book addresses the proper balance between syntax and semantics, between structure and derivation, and between rule systems and lexicon. It argues that the balance struck by mainstream generative grammar is wrong. This book is a major step forward for linguistics. Its systematic, accessible style of analysis heralds a renaissance in syntax, not just for specialists but for everyone. Two master syntacticians show how far current syntactic theory has lost touch with reality - and how to reconnect. A brilliant book,...

Grammar and Complexity: Language at the Intersection of Competence and Performance
ISBN: 9780199654598 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book combines ideas about the architecture of grammar and language acquisition, processing, and change to explain why languages show regular patterns when there is so much irregularity in their use and so much complexity when there is such regularity in linguistic phenomena. Peter Culicover argues that the structure of language can be understood and explained in terms of two kinds of complexity: firstly that of the correspondence between form and meaning; secondly in the real-time processes involved in the construction of meanings in linguistic expressions.

The Limits of Syntax
ISBN: 9780126135299 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Limits of Syntax is a collection of original, never before published essays. Each essay explores the ways in which greater incorporation of nonsyntactic explanations into linguistic research may deepen our understanding of problematic linguistic phenomena and, at the same time, strengthen syntactic research. To clarify the limits of syntactic explanation, these essayists investigate four areas. The first is a set of general issues related to the theory of grammar and the place of syntax in it. The second set develops an explanation of the power of semantics pragmatics within a...

Dynamical Grammar: Minimalism, Acquisition, and Change
ISBN: 9780198700258 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Dynamical Grammar explores the consequences for language acquisition, language evolution, and linguistic theory of taking the underlying architecture of the language faculty to be that of a complex adaptive dynamical system. It contains the first results of a new and complex model of language acquisition which the authors have developed to measure how far language input is reflected in language output and thereby get a better idea of just how far the human language faculty is hard-wired.

Syntactic Nuts: Hard Cases, Syntactic Theory, and Language Acquisition
ISBN: 9780198700234 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How are native speakers of a language instinctively able to make precise linguistic judgements about marginal syntactic matters? What does this tell us about both the structure of language and our innate language ability as humans? These questions form the focus of Professor Culicover's in-depth study which will appeal to both graduate students and professionals within the fields of linguistic theory and cognitive science.

Natural Language Syntax
ISBN: 9780199230174 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this book, Peter Culicover introduces the analysis of natural language within the broader question of how language works - of how people use languages to configure words and morphemes in order to express meanings. He focuses both on the syntactic and morphosyntactic devices that languages use, and on the conceptual structures that correspond to particular aspects of linguistic form. He seeks to explain linguistic forms and in the process to show how these correspond with meanings.

Explaining Syntax: Representations, Structures, and Computation
ISBN: 9780199660230 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book brings together Peter Culicover's most important observations on the nature of syntax and its place within the architecture of language. Over four decades he has sought to understand the mental system in which linguistic expressions are processed. This has led him to re-formulate the balance between the requirements of interpretation and the role of syntactic structure; to examine the nature of the empirical basis in which particular structural analyses can be applied to linguistic expressions; and to consider the extent to which such analyses reflect judgements based not only on...

Principles and Parameters: An Introduction to Syntactic Theory
ISBN: 9780198700142 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This authoritative survey shows readers how specific methodological assumptions underlie the core analyses on which syntactic theory is based. The author, an internationally respected figure in the field, gives extensive treatment of Government and Binding (GB) theory and summarizes the major proposals and results of Case theory, Theta theory, X' theory, Binding theory, the theory of A- and A' movement, locality conditions, and the theory of Logical Form (LF). He also provides an up-to-date introduction to a number of more recent proposals, including Chomsky's Minminalist Program, Larsonian...

ISBN: 9780814254431 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Learning a language involves so much more than just rote memorization of rules. Basics of Language for Language Learners, 2nd edition, by Peter W. Culicover and Elizabeth V. Hume, systematically explores all the aspects of language central to second language learning: the sounds of language, the different grammatical structures, the social functions of communication, and the psychology of language learning and use. Unlike books specific to one single language, Basics of Language will help students of all languages. Readers will gain insight into the structure and...

English Focus Constructions and the Theory of Grammar
ISBN: 9780521117180 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book is concerned primarily with certain constructions in English, often referred to as 'stylistic, ' whose use is restricted to particular contexts to discourse. Within the general framework of Chomskyan Government-Binding Theory, Michael Rochemont and Peter Culicover demonstrate how these constructions can be accommodated naturally within grammatical theory. Indeed, the existence of these constructions in English follows directly from general assumptions about the nature of English grammar. Along with explaining the formal properties of these constructions, the book investigates why it...
