“Each one of the essays in this collection of anonymously refereed articles is excellent. The authors examine, or re-examine interesting, complex and perplexing syntactic processes from a Romance perspective. As is often the case with analyses of grammatical process, the authors' solutions also provoke new theoretical questions. [...] this volume as well as its predecessors are extremely important and they belong in the personal library of everyone with an interest in Romance linguistics.”
Frank Nuessel, University of Louisville, in Lingua 118 (2008)
