Beschreibung:
Asaf Bachrach is a doctoral student at the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy at MIT. His research focuses on morphosyntax and neurolinguistics. His theoretical work centers on the representation and consequences of identity in a cyclic model of grammar. His brain research, using non-invasive imaging techniques as well as the study of impaired populations, investigates the neural correlates of syntactic complexity and on-line parsing and lexical access. Andrew Nevins is Assistant Professor of Linguistics at Harvard University. His main interests are in formal morphology and phonology, focusing on a diverse range of languages. His published work includes articles and reviews in Linguistic Inquiry and Natural Language and Linguistic Theory, and, as co-editor with Bert Vaux, Rules, Constraints, and Phonological Phenomena (OUP 2008).
This book throws new light on the syntax, morphology, and phonology interfaces by focussing on the key current question of which elements in a paradigm can stand in a relation of partial or total phonological identity.
