Book synopsis

Wortbildung und Morphologie sind zentrale Domänen des Sprachsystems und bilden die Basis für lexikalische Produktivität als eine Schlüsseleigenschaft menschlicher Sprachfähigkeit. §Heftig diskutiert wird der Status von Morphologie in der Grammatik. Einen Kernpunkt bildet dabei die Frage nach der Autonomie morphologischer Prozesse und vor allem, ob Wortbildungsmechanismen nicht syntaktischen oder semantisch-konzeptuellen Ebenen des Sprachsystems zuzuschlagen sind. Diese Fragen bilden den Hintergrund des Bandes, zu deren Behandlung Ansätze aus verschiedenen sprachlichen Bereichen zusammengeführt werden. Es werden morpho-syntaktische, semantische, phonologische und textuelle Aspekte beleuchtet, um aus Blickwinkeln der systemtheoretischen und kognitionswissenschaftlichen Linguistik, Computerlinguistik und Literaturwissenschaft zur Erforschung lexikalischer Kreativität und Flexibilität beizutragen.§Word-formation and morphology represent core domains of the language system, constituting the basis of lexical productivity as a central trait of the human language faculty. What is hotly discussed is the exact status of morphology in grammar. The debate centers around questions about the autonomy of morphological processes and, in particular, if word-formation could, in fact, be fused with syntactic or semantic-conceptual levels of the language system. Against this background, the current volume brings together approaches from different linguistic areas to provide insights to possible answers. Morpho-syntactic, semantic, phonological as well as textual aspects are addressed in order to contribute to an investigation of lexical creativity and flexibility from the different perspectives of system-theoretical and cognitive-scientific linguistics as well as computer linguistics and literary science.Word-formation and morphology represent core domains of the language system, constituting the basis of lexical productivity as a central trait of the human language faculty.
