Description

Adriana Belletti here collects work presented by top scholars at a workshop at the University of Siena in connection with a visit by Noam Chomsky. These eight articles go beyond strictly mapping syntactic properties, touching on broader theoretical questions related to Chomsky's Minimalist Program in particular. The reputation of the contributors, combined with the collection of cutting-edge research in one place, will interest scholars and students of generative linguistics.

Reviews

"This book is a major contribution to the theoretical foundations of the biolinguistic approach as well as the understanding of the interaction of the language faculty with other components of the mind/brain." --Language
