This book develops a theory of the morpheme in the framework of Distributed Morphology. Particular emphasis is devoted to the way in which functional morphemes receive their phonological form post-syntactically, through the operation of Vocabulary Insertion. In addition to looking closely at syncretism, the primary motivation for Vocabulary Insertion, the book examines allomorphy, blocking, and other key topics in the theory of the morpheme.
This book is an ideal text for an advanced course in the theory of complex functions. The author successfully enables the reader to experience function theory personally and to participate in the work of the creative mathematician. Unlike the first volume, it contains numerous glimpses of the function theory of several complex variables emphasizing how autonomous this discipline has become. Covered are Weierstrass' product theorem, Mittag-Leffler's theorem, the Riemann mapping theorem, and Runge's theorems on approximations of analytic functions.
Becoming Nietzsche is an essential book for understanding Nietzsche's philosophical genealogy from 1866 to 1868, a phase that is punctuated by the influence of Friedrich Lange and a surprising rejection of Schopenhauer's theory of the will. During this phase, Nietzsche focuses on the scientific and artistic status of teleological judgments and their relevance for thinking about organic life and representation. Paul A. Swift deftly connects Nietzsche's philology with the development of his theory of human understanding by providing scholarly analysis and short original translations of Nietzsche's early work on Democritus, Schopenhauer, and Kant.
