Abstract:

This book envisions the study of bare noun phrases as a field of research in
its own right rather than an accessory matter in the wider domain of nominal
determination. Combining insights from different theoretical backgrounds and
extending the empirical coverage of bare noun phenomena, the ten contributions
provide new perspectives on long-standing but still actively debated problems
as well as investigations into previously ignored issues. The volume focuses
on the wide range of bare noun phenomena in Romance languages, including
Spanish, Catalan, Brazilian and European Portuguese, Italian and French; but
also widens its inherently comparative perspective to languages such as
Bulgarian and Modern Hebrew. The authors discuss the importance of
cross-linguistic patterns in the modeling of the syntax and semantics of noun
phrases and of common noun denotations, the role of information structure as
well as that of discourse traditions and coordination.
