Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Relying on a wealth of new data, this book argues that
long-standing puzzles of Negative Inversion (NI) syntax are not
puzzles at all when viewed through the lenses of Gricean pragmatics
and Labovian sociolinguistics. Focusing on sentences such as "Can't
nobody lift that rock" in African American, Anglo, and Chicano
Englishes in Texas, the book provides tidy solutions to problems
such as: the NI's relationship to its non-inverted counterpart, its
relationship to existential "there" sentences, to modal existential
sentences, to the definiteness effects surrounding its NP subject,
the emphatic meaning with which it seems to be associated, and
more. The book argues that such issues, which have been explored in
the syntax and semantics literature since the late 1960s, are
handled more fruitfully via Gricean reasoning, demographics of use,
and a simple semantics. As such, the book argues that NI can be
freed from the "syntactico-semantic straitjacket" into which it has
often been forced. It also demonstrates ways in which pragmatic and
sociolinguistic thought can be brought together to inform larger
linguistic analyses.
