First published in 1984, this book examines a number of questions
on the boundary of competence and performance - whose solutions
have implications for linguistic theory in general. In particular,
the form of grammatical statements, the relationship between
various rules of grammar, the interaction between sentence in a
sequence, and the inferences to be drawn from linguistic behaviour
to linguistic knowledge. The author argues that many grammatical
processes, inadequately handled by conventional sentence-grammars,
require a text grammar in which the basic constitutive processes of
information and deixis can be specified. They ago further to
investigate the novel hypothesis that emphatic structure provides a
crucial condition for the application of transformational rules,
paying particular attention to the 'movement-rules' using mostly
data culled from actual usage.
