Description

Explore the complex relationship between linguistic structures in this specialized study from the Routledge Library Editions: Syntax. Originally published in 1988, this academic work examines how morphology and syntax interact within American Sign Language (ASL). Rather than defining clause structure through sign order or verb agreement, this research proposes that syntactic phenomena are driven by grammatical relations. By applying the relational grammar framework developed by Perlmutter and Postal, the text treats elements like "subject" and "direct object" as primitives of linguistic theory. This approach allows for a general accounting of facts regarding syntactic phenomena and verb agreement. This book is a significant resource for students, linguists, and researchers interested in the deep structures of sign language. It provides a formal method for understanding how grammatical relations shape the way American Sign Language functions, making it a valuable addition to any collection on Braille and Sign Language or linguistic theory.
