At each stage, Cowper is careful to introduce theoretical apparatus that is no more complex than is required to deal with the phenomenon under consideration. Comprehensive and up-to- date, this accessible volume will also provide an excellent refresher for linguists returning to study Government-Binding theory. "Cowper exhibits the analytical devices of current principles-and-parameters approaches, takes readers carefully through the central elements of grammatical theory (including very recent work), and ushers them selectively into the technical literature. . . . A serious introduction for those who want to know the nuts and bolts of syntactic theory and to see why linguists are so excited these days."--David Lightfoot, University of Maryland "An excellent short introduction to the Government and Binding model of syntactic theory. . . . Cowper's work succeeds in teaching syntactic argumentation and in showing the conceptual reasons behind specific proposals in modern syntactic theory."--Jaklin Kornfilt, Syracuse University Elizabeth A. Cowper is associate professor of linguistics at the University of TorontoHide synopsis
