β¦ Synopsis
This volume investigates interface interpretation within Phase Theory, the current stage of syntactic theorizing within the ??;Minimalist Program??, the generative research enterprise instigated by Noam Chomsky over 15 years ago. The collection brings together scholars who address architectural, conceptual, and interpretive issues in the grammar. In their investigations of the interpretive interfaces, Logical Form and Phonetic Form, the chapters provide novel analyses for both new and well-known facts, address theoretical issues for Phase Theory, and contribute insights from phonology and semantics.

<p>Over the past decade, many issues leading towards refining the model have been identified for a theory of syntax under minimalist assumptions. One of the central questions within the current theoretical model, Phase Theory, is architectural in nature: Assuming a minimal structure of the grammar,
Phase Theory is the latest model of modern syntactic theorizing in the generative tradition, the larger research enterprise known as the 'Minimalist Program'.

This book investigates the concept of phase, aiming at a structural definition of the three domains that are assumed as the syntactic loci for interface interpretation, namely vP, CP and DP. In particular, three basic issues are addressed, that represent major questions of syntactic research within
