Abstract:

Over the past decade, many issues leading towards refining the model have
been identified for a theory of syntax under minimalist assumptions. One of
the central questions within the current theoretical model, Phase Theory,
is architectural in nature: Assuming a minimal structure of the grammar,
how does the computational system manipulate the grammar to construct a
well-formed derivation that takes items from the mental lexicon to the
interpretive interfaces? This collection addresses this issue by exploring
the design of the grammar and the tools of the theory in order to shed
light on the nature of the interpretive interfaces, Logical Form and
Phonetic Form, and their role in the syntactic computation. 

The chapters in this volume collectively contribute to a better
understanding of the mapping from syntax to PF on the one hand, especially
issues concerning prosody and Spell-Out, and semantic interpretation at LF
on the other, including interpretive and architectural issues of more
conceptual nature. Apart from careful case studies and specific data
analysis for a number of languages, the material contained here also has
repercussions for Phase Theory in general, theoretical underpinnings as
well as modifications of syntactic mechanisms.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such 
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non 
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be 
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers 
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any 
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting 
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills 
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure 
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. 
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
