This is the first book to cover the grammar of clitics from all
points of view, including their phonology and syntax and relation
to morphology. In the process, it deals with the relation of second
position clitics to verb-second phenomena in Germanic and other
languages, the grammar of contracted auxiliary verbs in English,
noun incorporation constructions, and several other much discussed
topics in grammar. Stephen Anderson includes analyses of a number
of particular languages, and some of these - such as Kwakw'ala
("Kwakiutl") and Surmiran Rumantsch - are based on his own field
research. The study of clitics has broad implications for a general
understanding of sentence structure in natural language. Stephen
Anderson's clearly-written, wide-ranging, and original account will
be of wide interest to scholars and advanced students of phonology,
morphology, and syntax.
