| adam_text | This book presents a new cross-linguistic analysis of gender and its effects on morphosyntax.
It addresses questions including the syntactic location of gender features; the role of natural
gender; and the relationship between syntactic gender features and the morphological
realization of gender. Ruth Kramer argues that gender features arc syntactically located on the
n head (little lT), which serves to nominalize category-neutral roots. Those gender features are
either interpretable, as in the case of natural gender, or uninterpretable. like the gender of an
inanimate noun in Spanish. Adopting Distributed Morphology, the book lays out how the
gender features on n map onto the gender features relevant for morphological exponence.
The analysis is supported by an in-depth case study of Amharic. which poses challenges for
previous gender analyses and provides clear support for gender on n. The proposals generate
a typology of two- and three-gender systems, with the various types illustrated using data from
a genetically divers^ set of languages. Finally, further evidence for gender being on n is provided
from case studies of Somali and Romanian, as well as from the relationship between gender and
other linguistic phenomena including derived nouns and declension class. Overall, the book
provides one of the first large-scale, cross-linguistically-oriented, theoretical approaches to the
morphosyntax of gender.
