More about the book
Focusing on various formal grammar theories, the book explores their significance in contemporary linguistic theorizing, including Phrase Structure Grammar and Transformational Grammar, among others. It delves into key assumptions of each theory, illustrating how they address concepts such as arguments and adjuncts, active/passive alternation, verb placement, and long-distance constituent fronting. Using German as the primary example, the analyses provide a comprehensive understanding of these grammatical frameworks and their applications in linguistics.
