Praise for What is Morphology? “Aronoff and Fudeman have produced a clear and jargon-free introduction to contemporary morphological theory and practice. The book succeeds particularly in clarifying the empirical content, organizational principles and analytic techniques that distinguish morphology from other areas of linguistics.” James P. Blevins, University of Cambridge “This book offers abundant examples of morphological data and illuminating guidance through the classic and fundamental problems of morphological analysis. Any student who has worked through this book will really know what morphologists do, and how they go about doing it . . . I consider What Is Morphology? an indispensable introduction to the subject.” Martin Maiden, FBA, Professor of the Romance Languages Faculty of Linguistics Praise for Previous Edition “Aronoff and Fudeman have provided an extremely pleasant tour of the issues in modern morphological theory for beginning students. The rich collection of exercises will be a godsend to instructors and students alike, and the thread of discussion of a single language throughout the book is a brilliant stroke that other texts should emulate.” Stephen R. Anderson, Yale University “This unusual book combines a basic start on morphology with an introduction to Kujamaat Jóola. It is a fine addition to teaching materials on morphology: a book for beginners to use with a teacher, yet one from which any linguist could learn. The authors intend students to develop ‘a lasting taste for morphology’. I think many will.” Greville Corbett, University of Surrey, Guildford “Morphology has its own organizing principles, distinct from those of syntax, phonology, and the lexicon. Too many morphology textbooks obscure this fascinating fact, but Aronoff and Fudeman refreshingly make it the cornerstone of their exposition.” Andrew Carstairs-McCarthy, University of Canterbury 9781405194679_1_pretoc.indd i 8/10/2010 9:15:24 AM
Fundamentals of Linguistics Each book in the Fundamentals of Linguistics series is a concise and critical introduction to the major issues in a subfield of linguistics, including morphology, semantics, and syntax. The books presuppose little knowledge of linguistics, are authored by well-known scholars, and are useful for beginning students, specialists in other subfields of linguistics, and interested non-linguists.
