This volume explores the compositional semantics of clausal complementation, and proposes a theory in which clause-embedding predicates are uniformly "e;question-oriented"e;, i.e., they take a set of propositions as their semantic argument. T...Lasīt vairāk

Control, typically defined as a specific referential dependency between the null-subject of a non-finite embedded clause and a co-dependent of the matrix predicate, has been subject to extensive research in the last 50 years. While there is a broad c...Lasīt vairāk

Many of the worlds languages permit or require clause-initial positioning of the primary predicate, potentially alongside some or all of its dependents. While such predicate fronting (where "e;fronting"e; may or may not involve movement) is...Lasīt vairāk
