of structural Case in the licensing of null arguments / Maia Duguine -- Structural dependency and interpretation in Basque nominalized clauses / Itziar San Martin -- Perception verb complements in Basque / Iñigo Arteatx -- A continuum of deficiency for Basque infinitives / Bill Haddican and George Tsoulas This collective volume on nominal expressions in Basque, a language isolate with no known relatives, comprises original papers on the syntactic structure and the interpretation of both Noun Phrases and nominalization constructions – a traditionally neglected aspect of Basque linguistics. The minute attention to properties and paradigms previously overlooked, and the analyses of them in the light of recent advances in syntactic theory make this book a valuable tool for syntacticians, semanticists and morphologists. This work fills a gap in the theoretical study of Basque, and the richness of data presented makes it interesting for any researcher from whatever particular theoretical persuasion. This volume is especially useful for researchers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduate students of comparative grammar, typology, and theoretical linguistics. Provided by publisher.
