Description

This volume offers a critical examination of the cartographic assumption that there is a rich array of functional projections whose hierarchical order is fixed and determined by Universal Grammar. The contributions discuss the nature of these hierarchies and their relation to the central theoretical goal of explanatory adequacy.

Author

Ángel J. Gallego is Associate Professor in the Department of Spanish Philology at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and a member of Interdisciplinary Approaches to Language and their Applications (IALaA). He works in the areas of theoretical syntax and linguistic variation, with a focus on what syntactic phenomena such as locality, phase structure, and transformations can reveal about the Language Faculty. He is the author of The Syntactic Variation of Spanish Dialects (OUP, 2019) and co-editor, with Roberta D'Alessandro and Irene Franco, of The Verbal Domain (OUP, 2017).Dennis Ott is Associate Professor of Linguistics at the University of Ottawa, having previously held positions at the University of Groningen, Humboldt University of Berlin, and the University of the Basque Country. His research explores the formal principles underlying the syntax of natural languages, and how the mental grammar encoding these principles interfaces with systems of interpretation and articulation. He is the co-editor, with Vera Lee-Schoenfeld, of Parameters of Predicate Fronting (OUP, 2021).
