Issues addressed in this contributed volume include lexical
semantics, morphosyntax, and phonology based on the broad theme of
formal approaches to language universals and variation. Aspects of
natural language variation are investigated from a formal
theoretical perspective, including the Principles and
Parameters/Minimalist Program, Lexical Functional Grammar and
Optimality Theory. A wide range of languages and language families
are considered, including Amharic, Arabic, Bantu, Berber, Chamorro,
English, French, Japanese, Malyalam, Polish, Spanish, Tagalog,
Turkish, and Warlpiri. This is an important addition to the growing
body of literature on language universals and variation from formal
theoretical perspectives. It will be a useful reference to
linguistics specialists and other cognitive scientists. The topics
covered are also diverse, ranging from pronominal clitic variation
in dialects of Spanish to passives in Bantu and Polish and the
typology of Wh-in-situ questions and vowel place constraints.
