Morphological autonomy: perspectives from romance inflectional morphology

This book is about the nature of morphology and its place in the structure ofgrammar. Drawing on a wide range of aspects of Romance inflectional morphology, leading scholars present detailed arguments for the autonomy of morphology,ie morphology has phenomena and mechanisms of its own that are not reducible to syntax or phonology.
