Explore the intricate world of syntactic contrast with ‘CONTRAST AND REPRESENTATIONS IN SYNTAX’, a pivotal volume from Oxford Studies in Theoretical Linguistics. This essential read delves into how grammatical oppositions, like tense contrasts, are encoded within natural language syntax. Uncover the fundamental debate in generative linguistics: what aspects of syntax are universal, and which are subject to variation? The book examines the dual function of features, both defining contrasts and constructing syntactic structures, highlighting their role as loci of parametric variation. Discover new avenues linking morphology and syntax, driven by featural contrast. Featuring diverse linguistic data from Blackfoot, Greek, Onondaga, and Scottish Gaelic, this study offers a comprehensive perspective for linguists and scholars interested in theoretical syntax and language variation.
