Constraint-based Analysis - Syntax 2
Welcome and Prospect
This course continues the course Constraint-based Analysis taught by Prof. Webelhuth in the previous semester. Constraint-based Analysis introduced the major theoretical techniques of the theory of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar: types and type hierarchies, feature structures, constraints, and the six syntactic schemata proposed in Pollard and Sag (1994).
Constraint-based Syntax 2 focuses less on techniques and more on the structure of English. It illustrates that the techniques acquired by the students in the previous course are sufficient to develop concrete and insightful analyses of many English constructions, including the following: interrogative and relative clauses, passive sentences, and several varieties of infinitives.
Readings
We will read several chapters from the following book:
Ginzburg, Jonathan and Ivan Sag (2000). Interrogative Investigations: The Form, Meaning and Use of English Interrogatives. Stanford: CSLI.
Online Grammars
In order to prove the consistency and precision of the theory, we will again work with online grammars. These are available permanently. Here are the links to the grammars:
