| Summary: | "Adverbs and Particles at the Form-Meaning Interface offers a comprehensive investigation of two word classes that play a crucial role at the interfaces and have posed challenges for linguistic theory. Drawing on a broad typological range, including Germanic, Romance, Basque, and Heritage Greek, this volume sheds new light on the role of adverbs and particles at the interfaces between morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics from both a synchronic and diachronic perspective. Contributions from both established and emerging scholars offer original theoretical, methodological, and empirical research, addressing diverse topics such as the internal structure of adverbs, external syntax, grammaticalization from adverbs to particles, and their specific role in discourse. This volume will be highly relevant to theoretical and historical linguists, particularly those interested in the interaction of form and meaning"-- Provided by publisher. |
