This practical coursebook introduces all the basics of modern
syntactic analysis in a simple step-by-step fashion. Each unit is
constructed so that the reader discovers new ideas, formulates
hypotheses and practises fundamentals. The reader is presented with
short sections of explanation with examples, followed by practice
exercises. Feedback and comment sections follow to enable students
to monitor their progress. No previous background in syntax is
assumed. Students move through all the key topics in the field
including features, rules of combination and displacement, empty
categories, and subcategorization. The theoretical perspective in
this work is unique, drawing together the best ideas from three
major syntactic frameworks (minimalism, HPSG and LFG). Students
using this book will learn fundamentals in such a way that they can
easily go on to pursue further study in any of these frameworks.
