Edges in syntax : scrambling and cyclic linearization /
This text examines how word order variations in language can be regulated by various factors in cyclic syntax. In particular, it offers a valuable contribution to the current debate concerning the effect of cyclic Spell-out on the (re- )ordering of elements in scrambling. Heejeong Ko provides in-dep...
