Abstract:

The Going Romance conferences are a major European annual discussion forum
for theoretically relevant research on Romance languages. Selected papers
are published in the Romance Languages and Linguistic Theory volumes. This
is the fourth such volume, containing a selection of the papers that have
been presented at the 2002 conference, which was held at the State
University of Groningen. The three-day program included a workshop on
Acquisition. The articles in this volume focalize on specifics of one or
more Romance languages or varieties: clausal structure, verb-movement,
topic, focus and reinforcement constructions, nominal ellipsis, (absence
of) pronouns in child language, and other current issues in Romance
linguistics.
