Von der hinteren Coverseite

A Course in Minimalist Syntax is a straightforward and detailed introduction to essential topics in the Minimalist Program, designed for students and scholars alike. Building on the authors’ previous works on minimalist syntax, this volume maintains an informal tone yet contains sufficient fresh material to appeal at the highest level.

Written by the authors of the classic A Course in GB Syntax, this book provides a natural extension of their classroom approach to linguistics, and shows readers a new way of approaching syntax by thinking in minimalist terms.
