In this course we will read the literature on agrammatism, from the descriptive work of early contributors, especially Pick, to the experimental work of the 1990s and beyond. Topics will include: defining the phenomenon, competing explanatory theories, the question of comprehension problems, functors vs. substantives, cross-language expression of agrammatism, and the like. After the initial set of readings for the first month or two, each student will be responsible for a class-session on a topic of interest. This will involve assigning class-readings so that the rest of the class will be prepared for your discussion, presenting an in-depth lecture on the topic, and leading the class discussion that follows.
