Stephen Wechsler
This book examines the nature of the interface between word meaning and syntax,
one of the most controversial and elusive issues in contemporary linguistics. It approaches
the interface from both sides of the relation and surveys a range of views on the mapping
between them, with an emphasis on
léxica!
approaches to argument structure. Stephen
Wechsler
begins by analysing the fundamental problem of word meaning, with discussions
of vagueness and polysemy, complemented with a look at the roles of world knowledge
and normative aspects of word meaning. He then surveys the argument-taking properties
of verbs and other predicators, and presents key theories of lexical semantic structure.
Later chapters provide a description of formal theories and frameworks for capturing
the mapping from word meaning to syntactic structure, as well as arguments in favour
of a lexical
ist
approach to argument structure. The book will interest scholars of
theoretical linguistics, particularly in the fields of syntax and lexical semantics,
as
wel!
as those interested in psycholinguistics and philosophy of language.
