Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

THE SYNTAX OF VERB MOVEMENT: This proseminar will look at the syntax of verb movement. We will consider short verb movement to a v position, middle-sized verb movement to Tense, the possibility of intermediate landing sites and finally V2, i.e. movement to C. The questions we will ask will encompass phonological, morphosyntactic and semantic triggers for movement and phonological, morphosyntactic and semantic consequences of the movement. We will also discuss different theoretical proposals within the broadly speaking generative tradition for verb movement.

Assessment and permitted materials
