This volume is the first handbook devoted entirely to the multitude
of frameworks adopted in the field of morphology, including
Minimalism, Optimality Theory, Network Morphology, Cognitive
Grammar, and Canonical Typology. Following an introduction from the
editors, the first part of the volume offers critical discussions
of the main theoretical issues within morphology, both in word
formation and in inflection, as well as providing a short history
of morphological theory. In the core part of the handbook, part II,
each theory is introduced by an expert in the field, who guides the
reader through its principles and technicalities, its advantages
and disadvantages, and its points of agreement and disagreement
with alternative theories. Chapters in part III explore the bigger
picture, connecting morphological theory to other subdisciplines of
linguistics, such as diachronic change, language acquisition,
psycholinguistics, and sign language theory. The handbook is
intended as a guide for morphologists from all theoretical
backgrounds who want to learn more about frameworks other than
their own, as well as for linguists in related subfields looking
for theoretical connections with the field of morphology.
