The central claim is that the syntactic representation of every sentence has to encode which of these types of focus structure is realized. This claim is discussed in great detail with respect to syntax, intonation and semantics within the framework of the Minimalist Program. It is shown that the incorporation of focus structure into syntax offers new perspectives for a solution of vexing problems in syntax and semantics. For example, fronting (preposing, 'topicalisation') is treated as a syntactic operation which clearly belongs to core grammar, i.e. is not optional or 'stylistic'; the semantic notion of quantifier raising is dispensed with in favour of a focus structural treatment of phenomena which gave rise to it. The book appeals to generative linguists and to functional linguists who do not believe in an unbridgeable gap between the formal and functional analysis of language. 04 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475/la.68.png 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_jpg/9789027227928.jpg 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_tif/9789027227928.tif 06 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_front/la.68.hb.png 07 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/125/la.68.png 25 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_back/la.68.hb.png 27 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/3d_web/la.68.hb.png 10 01 JB code la.68.01abb ix 1 Miscellaneous 1 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Abbreviations</TitleText> 10 01 JB code la.68.02iin 1 1 Chapter 2 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">I.
