Luis López

A Derivational Syntax for Information Structure

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this volume, Luis López sheds new light on information structure and makes a significant contribution to work on grammatical operations in the Minimalist Program. He presents a model of syntax-information structure interaction and argues that this interaction takes place at the phase level, with a privileged role for the edge of the phase.
