Persian is a relatively understudied language within the field of theoretical linguistics. This book adopts the Minimalist Program of Chomsky (1995-2004), which is at the forefront of recent theories of formal syntax, and applies it to the Persian language. Agreement Restrictions in Persian is the first comprehensive attempt to tackle the issue of verbal agreement in Persian from a cross-linguistic point of view. Findings of this work not only contribute to better understanding of Persian syntax, but also provide important implications for the grammar theory as a whole.
