Description

Theta Theory: 78 offers an in-depth look at the lexicon as an interface between cognition and the computational system of language. As part of the Studies in Generative Grammar series, this volume examines how semantic roles function as encoded features of verbs. The text argues for the traditional concept of a listed lexicon while providing a critical review of mainstream theories in lexical semantics. Readers will find a detailed analysis of the link between cognition and the lexicon. The book includes an extensive description of relevant linguistic data in German, covering essential topics such as agentivity, causation, and psychological predicates. This work is designed for those studying language structure and the mechanics of how information flows through linguistic systems.
