Syntax
A Journal of Theoretical, Experimental and Interdisciplinary Research
Edited by:
Suzanne Flynn and David Adger
SYNTAX aims to unite related but often disjointedly represented areas of syntactic inquiry together in one publication. Within a single forum SYNTAX accommodates both the explosive growth and increased specialization in the field of syntax.
SYNTAX contains a reviewed Open Forum section which debates topical questions concerning syntactical research. Varied discussions include: historical antecedents of current ideas; methodological, interdisciplinary and philosophical issues confronting contemporary research and ideas; and issues for undergraduate and graduate teaching of interdisciplinary syntax.
