[Lingtyp] most important works in generative typology

[Nigel Vincent]

Dear Adam,
I'd suggest including Ian Roberts' book on parameter hierarchies: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/parameter-hierarchies-and-universal-grammar-9780198804635?q=roberts%20parameters&lang=en&cc=dk

Subject: [Lingtyp] most important works in generative typology

Hi all,

Trying to make a bibliography for my typology class. I was wondering what people thought the most important works (say top 5-10) in generative typology are in the past 20 years. In my mind this is mostly dominated by Mark Baker's work, but I feel this impression might be out of date. I'd be very interested in PhD theses (or work derived from these) in particular.

best regards,

Adam
