Description: The Morpheme by David Embick Emphasis is devoted to the way in which functional morphemes receive their phonological form post-syntactically, through the operation of Vocabulary Insertion. Looking closely at syncretism, the primary motivation for Vocabulary Insertion, this book examines allomorphy, blocking, and other key topics in the theory of the morpheme. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description 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. Author Biography David Embick, University of Pennsylvania, USA Review "Overall, the book is clear and well organized. It presents a coherent and fairly standard view of Distributed Morphology, though it does trend away from controversies within the framework. [...] Still, this book belongs in the library of anyone whose work intersects with Distributed Morphology, because as a technical introduction, it is certainly unmatched."Jeffrey Punske in: LiguistList 30.2258 (22.04.2019) Review Text "Overall, the book is clear and well organized.
