The Syntactic Structures of Korean offers a remarkably broad yet in-depth empirical and theoretical coverage of popular contemporary topics in Korean syntax and semantics. It is an invaluable resource for undergraduate and graduate students of linguistics seeking an insightful and systematic critique of existing literature, and viable solutions.
Covering both core and peripheral phenomena, The Syntactic Structures of Korean is a concrete and precise grammar of the language. Based on the framework of Sign-based Construction Grammar, it provides a grammar of Korean which is computationally implementable and cognitively viable. Remarkably broad, yet in-depth, it is an outstanding analysis of Korean syntax and semantics which will be welcomed by those working in linguistics and the Korean language.

Professor Jong-Bok Kim teaches at the School of English at Kyung Hee University, Seoul. He received his PhD in Linguistics from Stanford University, California in 1996 and works on the syntax and semantics of Korean and English. He has published numerous papers and is also co-author of English Syntax: An Introduction (2008), which is used worldwide as an undergraduate and graduate textbook.
