Linear Syntax (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780198238720)

This volume makes a case for a critical reassessment of the wide-spread view that syntax can be reduced to tree structures, arguing for concepts that are defined in terms of linear order. By connecting the descriptive tools of modern phrase-structure grammar with traditional descriptive scholarship, Andreas Kathol offers a new perspective on many long-standing problems in syntactic theory.
