This book combines ideas about the architecture of grammar and language
acquisition, processing, and change to explain why languages show regular patterns
when there is so much irregularity in their use and so much complexity when there is
such regularity in linguistic phenomena. Peter Culicover argues that the structure ot
language can be understood and explained in terms of two kinds of complexity: firstly
that of the correspondence between form and meaning; secondly in the real-time
processes involved in the construction ot meanings in linguistic expressions.
Mainstream syntactic theory has tocused largely on regularities within and across
languages, relegating to the periphery exceptional and idiosyncratic phenomena. But,
the author argues, a language s irregular and unique features
öfter
fundamental insights
into the nature ot language, how it changes, and how it is produced and understood.
Peter Culicover s new book
öfters
a pertinent and orginal contribution to key current
debates in linguistic theory. It will interest scholars and advanced students of linguistics
of all theoretical persuasions.
is Humanities Distinguished Professor in Linguistics and the
founding Director ot the Center for Cognitive Science at the Ohio State University;
His publications include Simpler Syntax co-authored with Rayjackendoff (OUP
2005)
and
