Abstract:

This volume brings together 19 cutting edge studies written by some of the
most prominent linguists working on Chinese formal syntax, as a Festschrift
volume dedicated to Yen-Hui Audrey Li. The contributions to the volume address
a wide range of issues currently developing in the field of Chinese syntax,
grouped into five thematic sections on "the structure of lexical and
functional projections, modal verb syntax, syntax-semantics interactions, the
syntax and interpretation of particles, and the acquisition of syntactic
structures". With its rich descriptive content sourced from different
varieties of Chinese, and its theoretical orientation and analyses, the book
provides an important new resource both for researchers with a primary
interest in Chinese and other linguists interested in discovering how
properties of Chinese can inform the analysis of other languages.
