OverviewThis text contains 13 studies on various aspects of Greek syntax. In recent years, the study of Greek has become important for the development of generative theory. The various contributions to this volume demonstrate how much the field of Greek syntax has grown both in range and depth. The topics investigated include the phrase structure of clauses and nominal phrases, clitics in standard Greek and in dialects, the licensing of negative polarity items, the nature of sentential operators, control, argument structure and compounds. The studies highlight the importance of Greek for the development of a satisfactory theory of comparative syntax. Full Product DetailsAuthor: A. Alexiadou , G.C.
