Abstract:

The overarching goal of this volume is to explore a number of recent
developments in Phase Theory (both theoretical and empirical), thus
contributing to our overall understanding of the concept of phases. 

The volume is divided into three parts, of which the first focuses on the
traditional role played by phases in defining successive cyclicity, while at
the same time examining the interaction between that traditional role and
Chomsky (2013)’s proposal about labeling. The second part focuses on the
question of whether only the highest projection of the clausal and nominal
domain, CP and DP, are phases or whether those domains also contain an
internal phase: vP and NP/NumP/QP, while the third part contains two chapters
that focus on the extent to which ellipsis can be used as a reliable
diagnostic for phasehood. 

As a whole, the volume provides a detailed and in-depth view on a number of
recent developments in Phase Theory, which will likely continue to dominate
the debate for several years to come.
