Sardinian Syntax (Hardcover, annotated edition)

Until now, very little published work exists on the syntax of Sardinian, and what does exist is of a fairly informal type. In this book, Michael Jones has written a general description of the language which is comprehensive enough to use as a grammar.
There are many phenomena in Sardinian syntax which are directly relevant to current theoretical debates which have been pursued in terms of other Romance languages (particularly within the Government-Binding framework) although generally not known. "Sardinian Syntax" discusses these phenomena--not documented in existing account--presenting descriptions within a broad, much-simplified version of Government-Binding theory, in order to provide a coherent and explicit framework. Jones also highlights aspects of the language which are particularly interesting from a theoretical point of view. The book is intended primarily as a description of Sardinian, and while it discusses theoretical issues no familiarity with the framework is needed. As such, it will become invaluable to students of syntax and Romance languages.
