Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This seminar is aimed at students who want to write a BA thesis on a topic in theoretical linguistics. Though its thematic focus is intended to be on (modelling) deficiency and redundancy in natural language, we will try to tailor it to the needs and wishes of seminar participants and their interests. The empirical heart of the seminar will consist in discussing arguably deficient elements such as clitic and null pronouns on the one hand, and reduplication (or doubling) phenomena, such as resumption, clitic doubling, determiner doubling, verb doubling, on the other, as well as their modelling in a formal theory of grammar.
