Abstract
AbstractA review of the analytic history of derived nominals and their argument structure configurations spans, by necessity, significant milestones in theoretical developments at the very least of the past 50 years, with issues involving most crucially on the one hand the lexicon/syntax divide and the formal properties of words and word formation, and on the other hand the modelling of event structure. Major theoretical developments in the past 50 years are summarized and critically assessed in this entry.
