Abstract:

This book presents a hypothesis-based description of the clausal structure of
German Sign Language (DGS). The structure of the book is based on the three
clausal layers CP, IP/TP, and VoiceP. The main hypothesis is that scopal
height is expressed iconically in sign languages: the higher the scope of an
operator, the higher the articulator used for its expression. The book was
written with two audiences in mind: On the one hand it addresses linguists
interested in sign languages and on the other hand it addresses cartographers.
