Despre această carte electronică

Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG) is a nontransformational theory of linguistic structure, first developed in the 1970s by Joan Bresnan and Ronald M. Kaplan, which assumes that language is best described and modeled by parallel structures representing different facets of linguistic organization and information, related by means of functional correspondences. This volume has five parts. Part I, Overview and Introduction, provides an introduction to core syntactic concepts and representations. Part II, Grammatical Phenomena, reviews LFG work on a range of grammatical phenomena or constructions. Part III, Grammatical modules and interfaces, provides an overview of LFG work on semantics, argument structure, prosody, information structure, and morphology. Part IV, Linguistic disciplines, reviews LFG work in the disciplines of historical linguistics, learnability, psycholinguistics, and second language learning. Part V, Formal and computational issues and applications, provides an overview of computational and formal properties of the theory, implementations, and computational work on parsing, translation, grammar induction, and treebanks. Part VI, Language families and regions, reviews LFG work on languages spoken in particular geographical areas or in particular language families. The final section, Comparing LFG with other linguistic theories, discusses LFG work in relation to other theoretical approaches.

Before moving to Oxford she was Computer Scientist at SRI International, Menlo Park, California; Member of the Research Staff, Xerox PARC, Palo Alto, California; and Senior Lecturer, Department of Computer Science, King's College London. Her work explores issues in syntax, semantics, and the syntax-semantics interface, often within the theory of Lexical Functional Grammar. She is also involved in language documentation, with a particular focus on Austronesian and Papuan languages. She has authored or coauthored five books, most recently the Oxford Reference Guide to Lexical Functional Grammar, with John J. Lowe and Louise Mycock.
