CRISSP is happy to announce another installment in the CRISSP Seminar series:
Lecturer: Željko Bošković (University of Connecticut)
Title: On the locality of movement: Be careful when you label
Date & time: Friday 6 November 2015, 17h30
Location: CRISSP/KULeuven Brussels Campus, room 2212
Participation: free
Abstract:
The talk will provide a uniform account of a number of locality effects, in particular, the ban on movement out of moved elements, the CED effect (the Adjunct Condition and the Subject Condition), Richards’s (2001) tucking in effect, and the full Comp-trace paradigm, including (in addition to the basic cases) relative and extraposed clauses, the impossibility of short-subject topicalization, French que-qui alternation, and the effect of wh-movement on agreement in languages like Kinande.
