Abstract:

Although in the early days of generative linguistics Slovenian was rarely
called on in the development of theoretical models, the attention it gets has
subsequently grown, so that by now it has contributed to generative
linguistics a fair share of theoretically important data. With 13 chapters
that all build on Slovenian data, this book sets a new milestone. The topics
discussed in the volume range from Slovenian clitics, which are called on to
shed new light on the intriguing Person-Case Constraint and to provide part of
the evidence for a new generalization relating the presence of the definite
article and Wackernagel clitics, to functional elements such as the future
auxiliary and possibility modals, the latter of which are discussed also from
the perspective of language change. Even within the relatively well-researched
topics like wh-movement, new findings are presented, both in relation to the
structure of the left periphery and to the syntax of relative clauses.
