Recent years have witnessed a (re)surfacing of interest on the interaction of morphology and syntax. For many grammatical phenomena, it is not easy to draw a dividing line between syntactic and morphological structure. This has led to the assumption that syntax is the module responsible not only for deriving syntactically complex phrases but also for deriving morphologically complex items, both in inflection and word formation. There are however also good reasons to think that syntax is not involved in all morphological processes and that there are consistent areas of morphology that are independent from syntactic processes. This book presents a collection of papers where phenomena from Romance languages and varieties are analysed under contrasting views on how morphology and syntax interact. All the contributions follow the aim to investigate what the analysed phenomena tell us about their structural make-up and the grammatical processes involved.

This study presents an application of distributed morphology to Spanish verb inflections. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the whole system of both the regular and the irregular verbs of Spanish and aims to provide insights into the relation between the features of involved flective endings, the syntactic structure and the attendant morpho(phono)logical processes. The bare phrase structure model of generative grammar is used as the syntactic framework for holding the distributed morphology .
