Abstract:

Over the years, a major strand of Miyagawa's research has been to study how 
syntax, case marking, and argument structure interact. In particular, Miyagawa's 
work addresses the nature of the relationship between syntax and argument 
structure, and how case marking and other phenomena help to elucidate this 
relationship. In this collection of new and revised pieces, Miyagawa expands 
and develops new analyses for numeral quantifier stranding, ditransitive 
constructions, nominative/genitive alternation, "syntactic" analysis of lexical 
and syntactic causatives, and historical change in the accusative case marking 
from Old Japanese to Modern Japanese. All of these analyses demonstrate an 
intimate relation among case marking, argument structure, and word order.
