Modeling Ungrammaticality in Optimality Theory is a collection of papers in phonology and syntax on the topic of ineffability, or absolute ungrammaticality, and the analytical challenge which it presents for Optimality Theory. The architecture of Optimality Theory takes an input and maps it onto its optimal output. But the cases analyzed in these papers would seem to invite analyses in which an input has no output whatsoever, not even an imperfect one. The papers develop various strategies for modeling this phenomenon. A useful book for researchers exploring ineffability from any theoretical perspective.

Highlighting the close relationship between linguistic explanation and learnability, Bruce Tesar and Paul Smolensky examine the implications of Optimality Theory (OT) for language learnability. They show how the core principles of OT lead to the lea
This is an introduction to Optimality Theory, whose central idea is that surface forms of language reflect resolutions of conflicts between competing constraints. The book does not limit its empirical scope to phonological phenomena, but also contains chapters on the learnability of OT grammars; OT'
