Title
A Criterial Approach to the Cartography of V2
Giuseppe Samo
This volume provides a mechanism to uncover the extremely rich split-CP of V2 languages, in both root and embedded clauses, on the basis of theoretical arguments and empirical findings. The movement of the inflected verbal head is triggered to agree with the profiled informational value of the… read moreArticles
In addition to arguments, adverbs and non-arguments are considered potential candidates to occupy left peripheral positions. Following standard assumptions in syntactic locality, adverbs, non-arguments and arguments elicit distinct effects in terms of intervention locality if moved. Such an… read more Cartographic maps aim to identify the order of generation and understand, by explaining in terms of syntactic strategies, the derived orders. In this work, we focus on the order of core verbal arguments and how the PP-NP order is derived from a basic NP-PP order. We test three models of… read more In this paper, we attempt to address a Restprache like Etruscan by means of theoretical tools. This work approaches the syntax of Etruscan and proposes a number of descriptive generalizations on its clausal structure. Despite the intrinsic difficulty represented by the fragmentary data, we… read more
