Abstract:
The strict separation of syntax and morphology along with the rejection of
derivational operations in structural syntax are two of several principles
in contemporary lexicalist theories. The syntactic theory of
Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG) recognizes that this separation between
syntax and morphology applies only to a structural domain but also that
both are equal, interacting, and competing contributors in a functional domain.
This book discusses the role of morphology in LFG, reintroducing two
seminal papers on the impact of the development of LFG on morphology, while
presenting new papers on current morphological issues. Theoretical issues
addressed include the relationship between synthetic and analytic exponents
of functional features; the need for a separate projection of m-structures;
the nature of morphosyntactic paradigms; optimality theory's role in LFG
morphology; and the use of LFG architecture in morphological description.
