Abstract:

This volume draws on insights from a range of theoretical perspectives
to explore objects, agreement, and their intersecting angles, based on
novel data from multiple language families. The recent expansion of
agreement theories has revealed new ways of integrating phenomena that
affect objects and their relational and featural properties with
conventional object markers, under a single 'agreement' umbrella. The
contributions to this book present the major advances in these new
angles of research into object agreement, and highlight in particular
the shared conditions on objects undergoing agreement that are
attested in a large number of genetically unrelated languages and
language modalities. Following a detailed introduction, the chapters
are organized into four parts that explore respectively the mechanics
of object agreement, constraints on symmetry, features of object
agreement, and issues relating to the left periphery. The volume's
findings and the novel questions that they raise will be of interest
to theoretical linguists, typologists, sign language researchers, and
anyone working on the theoretical analysis of Amazonian, Bantu,
Romance, Semitic, and Slavic languages.
