Possessors, Predicates and Movement in the DP illustrates clearly the ongoing debate over older and more recent approaches to the syntax of DPs in particular in the wake of the minimalist program (Chomsky 1995) and Kayne’s antisymmetry hypothesis (Kayne 1994). The relative theoretical coherence among the contributions permits detailed comparison of specific syntactic proposals, providing a solid basis for further debate. Several of the papers address the syntactic questions in parallel with related semantic or morphological issues. The value of this collection to the study of Universal Grammar is also underlined by its comparative bias. Analyses of Germanic, Romance and Balkan languages figure prominently, and a number of new empirical generalizations within and between languages are discussed. 22 10 15 1998 8 3 2011 9789027227430 9781556199066 9789027282293 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam 10.1075/la.22 http://www.jbe-platform.com/content/books/9789027282293 https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/la.22/html https://www.jbe-platform.com/deliver/fulltext/9789027282293.pdf Maaike Schoorlemmer 10 15 1998 8 3 2011 55 86 10.1075/la.22.04sch https://benjamins.com/catalog/la.22.04sch https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/la.22.04sch/html
