This volume contains the complete collection of published and unpublished work on German grammar by Tilman N. Höhle. It consists of two parts. The first part is Topologische Felder, a book-length manuscript that was written in 1983 but was never finished nor published. It is a careful examination of the topological properties of German sentences, including a discussion of typological assumptions.

This volume contains the complete collection of published and unpublished work on German grammar by Tilman N. Höhle. It consists of two parts. The first part is Topologische Felder, a book-length manuscript that was written in 1983 but was never finished nor published. It is a careful examination of the topological properties of German sentences, including a discussion of typological assumptions. The second part assembles all other published and unpublished papers by Höhle on German grammar.All of these papers were highly influential in German linguistics, in theoretical linguistics in general, and in a specific variant of theoretical linguistics, Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar. Topics covered are clause structure, constituent order, coordination, (verum) focus, word structure, the relationship between relative pronouns and verbs in V2, extraction, and the foundations of a theory of phonology in constraint-based grammar.
Tilman N. Höhle (*1945) studied General Linguistics, Indo-European Linguistics, and German Philology at the University of Göttingen and the University of Cologne, where he also received his M.A. (1969) and his PhD (1976). Having taught at the German Seminar of the University of Cologne for many years, he changed to the University of Tübingen in 1984 where, besides teaching German linguistics, he was involved in training several generations of general and computational linguists in grammatical theory as well as theoretically oriented descriptive German grammar. He retired in 2008. His research within grammatical theory and German grammar covers (i) a range of syntactic topics, in particular topological and other aspects of clause structure (such as extraction, non-finite constructions, constituent order, coordination, (verum) focus), (ii) aspects of 'word syntax', and (iii) theoretical aspects of phonology, in particular in model-theoretic grammar (HPSG).
