A revival of interest in morphology has occurred during recent
years. The Yearbook of Morphology series, published since 1988, has
proven to be an eminent support for this upswing of morphological
research, since it contains articles on topics which are central in
the current theoretical debates, and which are frequently referred
to. Thus it has set a standard for morphological research.
In the Yearbook of Morphology 2003 a large number of articles is
devoted to the phenomenon of complex predicates consisting of a
verb preceded by a preverb. Such complex predicates exhibit both
morphological and syntactic behaviour, and thus form a testing
ground for theories of the relation between morphology and syntax.
Evidence is presented from a wide variety of languages including
Germanic, Romance, Australian, and Uralic languages. A number of
articles present historical evidence on the change of preverbal
elements into prefixes. Topics such as grammaticalization,
constructional idioms, and derivational periphrasis are also
discussed.
In addition, this Yearbook of Morphology contains articles on
morphological parsing, and on the role of paradigmatical relations
in analogical change.
