Abstract:

The goal of this contribution to the Elements series is to closely
examine Merge, its form, its function, and its central role in current
linguistic theory. It explores what it does (and does not do), why it
has the form it has, and its development over time. The basic idea
behind Merge is quite simple. However, Merge interacts, in intricate
ways, with other components including the language's interfaces, laws
of nature, and certain language-specific conditions. Because of this,
and because of its fundamental place in the human faculty of language,
this Element's focus on Merge provides insights into the goals and
development of generative grammar more generally, and its prospects
for the future.
