Linguistics has undergone a considerable transformation in the last few decades.
The same can be said about the theory of English grammar. In this course book we tried
to present some o f the main features o f this transformation. Like all other authors, for
every chapter we had to choose from dozens of possible ways of presenting an approach
or concept, appropriate examples from the literature or our own research experience.
We are aware that because of the need for simplicity, we haven`t given adequate space
to many important conceptions. Since this book is intended for both undergraduate (part
I) and graduate (part II) students, the authors kept in mind the academic standards,
syllabus, curriculum o f these departments and academic hours allocated there for this
subject.
