Introduction: Lexemes in Descriptive and Theoretical Morphology
Olivier Bonami, Gilles Boyé, Georgette Dal, Hélène Giraudo & Fiammetta Namer
Traces the lexeme concept back to Matthews's distinction between word-form, syntactic word and lexeme, arguing that a word's inflected forms are abstractions over whole word-forms rather than assemblies of morphemes, and surveys how that word-and-paradigm view has developed since.
