This volume explores the progress of cross-linguistic research into
the structure of complex nominals since the publication of
Chomsky's 'Remarks on Nominalization' in 1970. In the last 50 years
of research into the division of labour between the mental lexicon
and syntax, the specific properties of nominalized structures have
remained a particularly central question. The chapters in this
volume take stock of developments in this area and offer new
perspectives on a range of issues, including the representation of
morphological complexity in the syntax, the correlation of nominal
affixes with different types of nominalizations, and the modelling
of non-compositional meaning within syntactic approaches to word
formation. Crucially, the contributors base their analyses on data
from typologically diverse languages, such as Archi, Greek, Hiaki,
Icelandic, Mebengokre, Turkish, and Udmurt, and explore the
question of whether, cross-linguistically, nominalizations have a
uniform core to their structure that can be syntactically
described.
