Abstract:

How do languages transmit information about the properties of phrases over 
large structural distances? This is the difficult question raised by the 
phenomenon of extraction, and while extraction has driven the development 
of syntactic theory for decades, there is still no consensus on what form 
the connectivity mechanism should take. A number of recent theoretical 
approaches share the view that extraction is not a unitary phenomenon, but 
this monograph offers data that radically undercuts this view. The grammar 
of extraction connectivity, the authors conclude, is relatively simple, 
homogenous in construction type, and uniform in the position of the 
extractee.
