Abstract:

How do languages transmit information about the properties of phrases over
large structural distances? This is the difficult question raised by the
phenomenon of extraction, and while extraction has driven the development
of syntactic theory for decades, there is still no consensus on what form
the connectivity mechanism should take. A number of recent theoretical
approaches share the view that extraction is not a unitary phenomenon, but
this monograph offers data that radically undercuts this view. The grammar
of extraction connectivity, the authors conclude, is relatively simple,
homogenous in construction type, and uniform in the position of the
extractee.

Linguistic Field(s): Semantics
