The papers collected in this volume apply principles of phonology and morphology to the Germanic languages. Phonological phenomena range from subsegmental over phonemic to prosodic units (as syllables, pitch accent, stress). Morphology includes properties of roots, derivation, inflection, and words. The analyses deal with language-internal and comparative aspects, covering the whole (European) range of Germanic languages. From a theoretical perspective, most papers concentrate on constraint-based approaches. Crucial to those theories are principles of the phonology-morphology interaction, both within and between languages. The well documented Germanic languages provide an excellent field for research and almost all papers deal with aspects of the interface.

The present volume contains a selection of papers presented at the 21st and 22nd Comparative Germanic Syntax Workshop held at the University of California, Santa Cruz and the University of Stuttgart. The contributions provide insightful discussions of several topics of current interest for syntactic theory on the basis of comparative data from a wide range of contemporary and historical Germanic languages. The theoretical issues explored include: the left periphery, with a number of contributions touching on the pros and contras of cartographic accounts; different aspects of word order and how it arises from movement and clause structure; the interplay of thematic relations and case theory with the realization of DPs; and the treatment of finiteness and modal structures. This book is of interest to syntacticians working in a comparative perspective and to advanced undergraduates.

Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, warum es Sprachen mit Artikel und solche ohne Artikel gibt. Am Fallbeispiel der Artikelentstehung in den germanischen Sprachen (Altisländisch, Gotisch und Althochdeutsch) wird herausgearbeitet, daß Artikelsysteme immer dann fehlen, wenn Sprachen intakte Aspektpaare aufweisen, und umgekehrt. Ein weiteres Ergebnis ist die Unterscheidung zwischen hypo- und hyperdeterminierenden Artikelsprachen, die als sprachtypologisch relevant erachtet wird. Hyperdeterminierende Artikelsprachen tendieren zum Neuaufbau von Aspektsystemen mit parallelem Verlust des Artikels. Auf der Basis kommentierter Transkriptionen von Textsequenzen werden die komplexen Muster der kategorialen Interaktion von Artikel und Aspekt aufgezeigt. Die Arbeit mündet in einer unifizierenden Beschreibung von Artikel und Aspekt als jeweils spezifische Anpassungen der Definitheitskategorie an ihre nominale oder verbale Umgebung.

Germanic - one of the largest sub-groups of the Indo-European language family - comprises 37 languages with an estimated 470 million speakers worldwide. This book presents a comparative linguistic survey of the full range of Germanic languages, both ancient and modern, including major world languages such as English and German (West Germanic), the Scandinavian (North Germanic) languages, and the extinct East Germanic languages. Unlike previous studies, it does not take a chronological or a language-by-language approach, organized instead around linguistic constructions and subsystems. Considering dialects alongside standard varieties, it provides a detailed account of topics such as case, word formation, sound systems, vowel length, syllable structure, the noun phrase, the verb phrase, the expression of tense and mood, and the syntax of the clause. Authoritative and comprehensive, this much-needed survey will be welcomed by scholars and students of the Germanic languages, as well as linguists across the many branches of the field.
