Abstract:

This monograph addresses two issues, phases and adverbials. It 
proposes that there is a correlation between the phase structure, the 
tripartite quantificational structure and the information structure of 
the sentence. This correlation plays an important role not only in 
referential and information-structural properties of arguments and 
the verb but also in adverbial properties. For instance, the study 
shows that certain sentence adverbials can occur in the sentence-final 
position in the vP phase when they represent the extreme 
value with respect to the set of focus alternatives. The proposed 
correlation also becomes important in anaphoric relations with 
respect to adjuncts. Only an R-expression spelled out and interpreted 
in the CP phase of an adjunct clause can corefer with the coindexed 
pronoun. The study also discusses adverbial ordering and shows that 
the relative order of certain adverbials can be reversed if they occur in 
different phases. The monograph will appeal to syntacticians and 
linguists interested in the relationship between syntax and its 
interfaces.
