Complex Sentences in Grammar and Discourse: Essays in honor of Sandra A. Thompson

by Joan L. Bybee (Editor), Michael Noonan (Editor)

The papers in this volume in honor of Sandra Annear Thompson deal with complex sentences, an important topic in Thompson’s career. The focus of the contributions is on the ways in which the grammatical properties of complex sentences are shaped by the communicative context in which they are produced, an approach to grammatical analysis that Thompson pioneered and developed in the course of her distinguished career.
