Abstract:

This volume collects novel contributions to comparative generative linguistics
that “rethink” existing approaches to an extensive range of phenomena,
domains, and architectural questions in linguistic theory. At the heart of the
contributions is the tension between descriptive and explanatory adequacy
which has long animated generative linguistics and which continues to grow
thanks to the increasing amount and diversity of data available to us.

The chapters address research questions on the relation of syntax to other
aspects of grammar and linguistics more generally, including studies on
language acquisition, variation and change, and syntactic interfaces. Many of
these contributions show the influence of research by Ian Roberts and
collaborators and give the reader a sense of the lively nature of current
discussion of topics in synchronic and diachronic comparative syntax ranging
from the core verbal domain to higher, propositional domains.
