2010 Why edges are needed Edges, Heads, and Projections: Interface properties, Di Sciullo, Anna Maria and Virginia Hill (eds.), pp. 11–22 | Article
The term edge has become ubiquitous in syntactic theory in recent years: one reads of the left edge of the clause or the edge of VP in cartographic approaches, of the edge of phases in phase-based computations, of edge features driving movement, and even of edge features underlying merge. In this… read more
2010 A tale of two minimalisms: Reflections on the plausibility of crash-proof syntax, and its free-merge alternative Exploring Crash-Proof Grammars, Putnam, Michael T. (ed.), pp. 105–124 | Article
2008 Copy-reflexive and copy-control constructions: A movement analysis Linguistic Variation Yearbook 2008, van Craenenbroeck, Jeroen (ed.), pp. 61–100 | Article
This paper discusses reflexive and control constructions in San Lucas Quiaviní Zapotec (Lee 2003) and Hmong (Mortensen 2003), where instead of a reflexive in the former and a null category in the latter, one may find a copy of the antecedent. The paper argues that these constructions provide… read more
2007 Pseudoclefts: a Fully Derivational Account Linguistic Theory and South Asian Languages: Essays in honour of K. A. Jayaseelan, Bayer, Josef, Tanmoy Bhattacharya and M.T. Hany Babu (eds.), pp. 29–40 | Article
This paper develops a syntactic account of pseudoclefts that is consonant with current attempts to develop a strictly derivational account of syntactic relations. In what follows, I show that recent proposals in the realm of the higher functional field, remnant movement, and binding conspire to… read more
