Word Order Typology and the Minimalist Program: What Do Parameters Belong To?

2019

One of the problems related with the word order and word order typology is connected with derivation obtaining in the narrow syntax and the conditions responsible for the Full Interpretation requirement at LF as well as at PF. If it is assumed that linearization as defined in Kayne (1994) is the reflexion of the asymmetric character of syntax at PF, then it is worth analysing which properties of the syntactic derivation within the narrow syntax are reflected at PF and which configurations seen on the surface are the results of PF conditions. In other words it would be interesting to determine the boundary between the factors responsible for the configuration of syntactic constituents obtain…
