授業の進め方と方法Method(s)(学期の途中で変更になる場合には、別途提示します。 /If the Method(s) is changed, we will announce the details of any changes. )
We follow Huddleston, Pullum and Reynolds’ textbook, which is based on (but is very much smaller and simpler than) the earlier book The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language (CGEL). Both are descriptive grammar books, saying how sentences of English are constructed (and not how the authors imagine they should be constructed). As its publisher says, CGEL “is firmly based on research in modern linguistics and rejects many errors of the older tradition, supporting its departures from traditional grammar with reasoned argument”. So the textbook will almost certainly disagree with any grammar or other textbook that you’ve used in any previous English course.
The book and course are only theoretical where necessary. (There are very few tree diagrams.) So if other syntax books alarm you, don’t worry.
Before each class, you have to read and digest ten or so pages of the textbook. We’ll discuss that part of the book, and related exercises, in the class. You are very welcome to come up with apparent counterexamples to what’s written in the book, and so forth.
Students both submit work for assignments and get comments on this work via “Hoppii”.
