Weak Island semantics /

This volume presents a novel semantic account of weak islands, structures that block the displacement of certain elements in a sentence. Dr Abrusan's argument that the behaviour of these constructions has a semantic rather than syntactic explanation removes some of the most important reasons fo...

520 8 |a This volume presents a novel semantic account of weak islands, structures that block the displacement of certain elements in a sentence. Dr Abrusan's argument that the behaviour of these constructions has a semantic rather than syntactic explanation removes some of the most important reasons for postulating abstract syntactic rules as part of universal grammar.
