This seminar primarily addresses MA and StEx students with an interest in the structure of English and its interfaces (e.g. the interface with meaning, morphology, and prosody). We will recap some key concepts of syntactic theory at the beginning, but a thorough syntax course is presupposed. (In case of doubt, consult the instructor before the beginning of class.) Subsequently, we will consider specific topics involving some more intricate constructions of English, their empirical details and theoretical modelling. |
