In this book, we will examine the historical context in which the "new" generative morphology has evolved (Chapter I), the work that "founded" the field, Halle's 1973 proposal (Chapter II) and the first theoretical, non episodic, proposal, that of Aronoff 1976 (Chapters III and IV). Following this, a model of the organization of the lexical component is given, along with some well formedness conditions (Chapter V), In addition, a model is proposed for the interplay among the various types of morphological rules, namely derivation, inflection and compounding rules (Chapter VI).
The approach to language and grammar that motivates this book is unabashedly functional; grammar is not just a system of empty rules, it is a means to an end, an instrument for constructing concise coherent communication. In grammar as in music, good expression rides on good form. Figuratively and literally, grammar like musical form must make sense. But for the instrument to serve its purpose, it must first exist; the rules must be real, they can be explicitly described and taught. This book is intended for both students and teachers, at college level, for both native and nonnative speakers.
