A Derivational Approach to Syntactic Relations

ISBN: 9780195111149 出版年：1998 页码：206 Epstein, Samuel David Groat, Erich M Kawashima, Ruriko Oxford University Press

This book explores the central concept of "syntactic relation" arguing that certain fundamental relations such as c-command, dominance and checking relations can be explained within a derivational approach to structure-building. The result is a level-free model of syntax in which derivations, rather than phrase-markers, undergo aemantic/phonological interpretation.
