Opis

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.
