Inhaltsangabe

While the argument structure of verbs has long been a central issue in linguistic research of all varieties and continues to be a vexed area of research across a wide range of theoretical and empirical approaches, the inter-disciplinary perspective and dialogue remain largely under explored. This collection stems from an interest to find and explore practical, tangible points of intersection between theoretical linguists, psycholinguists and neurolinguists working on problems related to the representation and processing of verbs and their associated thematic structure. The book is organized around three core themes, (i) the basic building blocks of verbal representations and modes of construction of the verb-argument complex, (ii) non-canonical argument structure realization, with a particular focus on object-experiencer psych verbs, and (iii) the promises and challenges of neurolinguistic and psycholinguistic investigation into argument structure and the prospects for the future of interdisciplinary research on verb argument structure.

Reseña del editor

The argument structure of verbs has long been a central issue in linguistic research of all varieties and continues to be a vexed, and very central, area of research across a wide range of theoretical and empirical approaches. However, in contrast to the richness of intra-disciplinary research and discussion, the inter-disciplinary perspective and dialogue remains largely underexplored. The goal of this book is to address that gap. We begin (and end) with many of the most basic questions that are at the heart of this rich body of work, but our primary aim is to juxtapose research on specific issues, and highlight the ways in which different methodologies of theoretical linguistics, psycholinguistics, and neurolinguistics are used to address similar questions. By doing so we showcase the potential for innovative cross-disciplinary research.
