Abstract (from the publisher’s website):

This volume contains a selection of the papers presented at the Third Mediterranean Morphology Meeting, which was held at the Institut Universitari de Lingüística Aplicadaof Pompeu Fabra University. This conference series was initiated some years ago by Geert Booij (Free University of Amsterdam), Angela Ralli (University of Patras) and Sergio Scalise (University of Bologna) in order to bring scholars together from around the world in a Mediterranean setting to discuss issues of morphological structure bearing on linguistic theory. The Institut Universitari de Lingüística Aplicada was pleased to be host to morphologists from Europe, North America and South America for MMM3 in September, 2001.

The main topics of the papers included in this volume are the borderline between syntax and morphology and the role of prosodic constraints in morphology.
