Over the past twenty years or so, the work on Japanese within
generative grammar has shifted from primarily using contemporary
theory to describe Japanese to contributing directly to general
theory, on top of producing extensive analyses of the language. The
Oxford Handbook of Japanese Linguistics captures the excitement
that comes from answering the question, "What can Japanese say
about Universal Grammar?" Each of the eighteen chapters takes up a
topic in syntax, morphology, acquisition, processing, phonology, or
information structure, and, first of all, lays out the core data,
followed by critical discussion of the various approaches found in
the literature. Each chapter ends with a section on how the study
of the particular phenomenon in Japanese contributes to our
knowledge of general linguistic theory. This book will be useful to
students and scholars of linguistics who are interested in the
latest studies on one of the most extensively studied languages
within generative grammar.
