Abstract:

This thesis presents a study of microvariation in (long-distance) restrictive
relative clauses and related constructions in Dutch. It shows that a proper
understanding of the attested microvariation, and in particular pronoun
doubling in long-distance relative clauses and (embedded) wh-questions, yields
new insights into the structure of A-bar chains, the syntax of relative
clauses, the structure of the left periphery and the nature of (relative)
pronouns and their relation with complementizers. More specifically, this
thesis provides a unified analysis of doubling in relative clauses and
(embedded) wh-questions, a reevaluation and reinstatement of (a revised
version of) the traditional head external analysis of relative clauses, and a
new implementation of an underspecification approach to so-called multipurpose
pronouns and complementizers. This study is of relevance to scholars working
on morphosyntactic microvariation, doubling phenomena, the structure of
long-distance A-bar chains, the syntax of relative clauses and the nature of
relative pronouns and complementizers, as well as to a general syntactic
readership
