Description

This volume provides an overview of government and binding theory. Written by a group of international researchers, each chapter is focused on an individual module of the theory. Articles describe the current development of and state of work on that topic; its place within the architecture of the GB approach to linguistic structure; and the prospects and need for change within the module. Gert Webelhuth is the author of "Principles and Parameters of Syntactic Saturation".
