Derivational Approach to Syntactic Relations

Bok av Samuel David Epstein och Erich M. Groat m.fl.
This book explores the central concept of "syntactic relation" arguing that certain fundamental relations such as c-command, dominance and checking relations can be explained within a derivational approach to structure-building. The result is a level-free model of syntax in which derivations, rather than phrase-markers, undergo aemantic/phonological interpretation.
