Syntactic Recoverability of Null Arguments

Release Date: 1990
Recent work in the generative framework of grammar has avoided explicit language-particular syntactic rules. This has had definite consequences for some theories of recoverability. In his solidly argued work, Yves Roberge considers the possibility that empty syntactic argument positions, where their content is recoverable in a very local sense, are a property of some natural languages: the null argument property.
Syntactic Issues in the English Imperative
First Published in 1998. This work is an unrevised version of my 1996 University of California, Santa Cruz Ph.D. dissertation. The only changes that have been made are corrections of typographical errors, minor rewording, updating of references, and the inclusion of an index. I would like to thank Rosemary Plapp and Kristi Long for help with proofreading and preparation of the manuscript.
The Acquisition of Syntax
This volume contains a collection of studies that survey recent research in developmental linguistics, illustrating the fruitful interaction between comparative syntax and language acquisition. The contributors each analyse a well defined range of acquisition data, aiming to derive them from primitive differences between child and adult grammar. The book covers cross-linguistic and cross-categorial phenomena, shedding light on major developments in this novel and rapidly growing field. Extensions to second language acquisition and neuropathology are also suggested.
