An Outline of Esoteric Science (Classics in Anthroposophy)An Outline of Esoteric Science (Classics in Anthroposophy)

Esoteric science is the science of what takes place esoterically, in the sense that it is perceived not outside in nature but where one's soul turns when it directs its inner being toward the spirit. Esoteric science is the opposite and counterpart of natural science. —Rudolf Steiner

The English Noun Phrase: The Nature of Linguistic CategorizationThe English Noun Phrase: The Nature of Linguistic Categorization

English has an interesting variety of noun phrases, which differ greatly in structure. Examples are 'binominal' (two-noun) phrases ('a beast of a party'); possessive constructions ('the author's opinion'); and discontinuous noun phrases ('the review [came out yesterday] of his book'). How are these different noun phrases structured? How do we produce and understand them?
