This volume collects landmark research in a burgeoning field of
visual analytics for linguistics, called LingVis. Combining
linguistic data and linguistically oriented research questions with
techniques and methodologies developed in the computer science
fields of visual analytics and information visualization, LingVis
is motivated by the growing need within linguistic research for
dealing with large amounts of complex, multidimensional data sets.
An innovative exploration into the future of LingVis in the digital
age, this foundational book both provides a representation of the
current state of the field and communicates its new possibilities
for addressing complex linguistic questions across the larger
linguistic community.

Case, a system which marks the relationships between words in a
sentence, is fundamental to every language. Looking at how
different theories of syntax have accounted for the distribution of
case across languages, this accessible 2006 textbook introduces the
various approaches to case that have been proposed in modern
linguistics. Clearly organised into topics, it provides beginning
students with a solid understanding of the ideas behind the
development of theories of case. For the more advanced reader, it
presents theories that have been formulated about the interaction
between case morphology, argument structure, grammatical relations
and semantics, and offers a detailed cross-theoretical discussion
of how these are motivated. Each chapter contains practical
exercises, encouraging students to engage with the ideas discussed.
Drawing on data from a wide range of languages and pooling together
a variety of perspectives, Theories of Case is essential reading
for all those studying this important area of linguistics.
