Argument structure - the pattern of underlying relations between a
predicate and its dependents - is at the base of syntactic theory
and the theory of the interface with semantics. This comprehensive
guide explores the motives for thematic and event-structural
decomposition, and its relation to structure in syntax. It also
discusses broad patterns in the linking of syntactic to semantic
relations, and includes insightful case studies on passive and
resultative constructions. Semantically explicit and syntactically
impartial, with a careful, interrogative approach, Williams
clarifies notions of argument within both lexicalist and
nonlexicalist approaches. Ideal for students and researchers in
syntactic and semantic theory, this introduction includes: A
comprehensive overview of arguments in syntax and semantics Each
chapter contains discussion questions and suggestions for further
reading A glossary provides helpful definitions of key terms."
