Regimes of Derivation in Syntax and Morphology

Beschreibung

Regimes of Derivation in Syntax and Morphology presents a theory of the architecture of the human linguistic system. The theory is a descendant of the author's "Representation Theory" and so inherits its other benefits as well, including explanations for properties of reconstruction, remnant movement, improper movement, and scrambling/scope interactions, and the different embedding regimes for clauses and DPs. Syntactic islands are added to this list as special cases of improper movement.
