Abstract:

The ten contributions in this volume focus on a range of linearization
challenges, all of which aim to shed new light on the central, still largely
mysterious question of how the abundant evidence that linguistic structures
are hierarchically organised can plausibly be reconciled with the fact that
actually realised linguistic strings are typically sequentially ordered. Some
of the contributions present particularly challenging data, those on the mixed
spoken and signed output of bimodal Italian children, Quechua nominal
morphology, Kannada reduplication and Taqbaylit of Chemini “floating
prepositions” all being cases in point. Others have a typological focus,
highlighting and attempting to explain striking patterns like the
Final-over-Final Constraint or considering the predictions of particular
theoretical approacesh (the movement theory of Control, multidominance,
Distributed Morphology) in relation to structures that we do and don’t expect
to be “possible linguistic structures”. Broader architectural questions also
receive attention from various perspectives.
