Inhaltsangabe

This short text is an absolute prerequisite to understanding Chomsky's minimalist program. It is designed to convey the essence of generative theory in language clear enough for a novice to understand. This text stands in sharp contrast to typical syntax texts, many of which are more like encyclopedias than texts and stretch to more than 600 pages. Walsh's text explains the motivation for X-bar treatment of all phrase types (NP, VP, AP, PP, IP, and CP) and for four transformations (WH-Movement, NP-Movement, V-to-I Movement, and I-Movement). Features include six short chapters, chapter summaries, and over 70 individual exercises. Instructor's Manual available to faculty.
