Abstract

This volume represents the culmination of a lengthy and rewa rding collaboration between Ken Hale and Samuel Jay Keyser. Unfortunately, Ken Hale pass ed away two months after the completion of the text. Undoubtedly, some of the minor ro ugh spots in the discussion and analysis would have been more polished if he were still wi h us. As the title indicates, this book serves as an introduction to a particular theory of argument structure. Their central claim is that the behaviour of lexical items can be ex plained with a minimal set of principles, and that lexical items project a syntactic st ructure defined over only two relations: complement and specifier. The remainder of this r eview discusses each chapter in detail followed by some critical notes. The first chapter introduces the basic conception of argumen t structure that forms the foundation of this volume. The authors present a rather shar pened notion of argument structure, indicating that the structure projected by a lex ical item is based on information from the lexicon. Denominal and deadjectival verbs form the basis of the major ity f the discussion in this chapter. The key idea is that a lexical root “conflates” w ith an empty or nearly empty verbal head to form a verb:

这本书代表了肯·黑尔和塞缪尔·杰伊·凯泽之间漫长而有益的合作的高潮。不幸的是，肯·黑尔在文本完成两个月后去世了。毫无疑问，如果他还在的话，讨论和分析中的一些小问题会得到更完善的处理。正如书名所示，这本书是对论证结构的一种特殊理论的介绍。他们的核心主张是，词法项的行为可以用一组最小的原则来解释，而且词法项投射的句法结构只定义在两个关系上:补语和说明符。这篇评论的其余部分详细讨论了每一章，然后是一些重要的注释。第一章介绍了构成本卷基础的论证结构的基本概念。作者提出了一个相当共享的论点结构概念，表明一个词法项目所投射的结构是基于来自词典的信息。名动词和形容词动词构成了本章讨论的主要基础。关键思想是词根w与空或几乎空的动词词头“合并”形成动词:

期刊介绍： La Linguistique se consacre à l"examen de tout ce qui touche au langage et aux langues, comme instruments de communication et d"expression. Elle traite donc de linguistique générale, de description des langues (phonétique, phonologie, syntaxe, sémantique, pragmatique, analyse de discours, etc.), de diachronie, de sociolinguistique, de psycholinguistique, de sémiologie, etc. La Linguistique recrute ses collaborateurs, en premier lieu, parmi les chercheurs qui dégagent la structure des langues à partir de l"observation de leur fonctionnement, mais aussi chez ceux qui s’intéressent à l"épistémologie et à la théorie.
