Theoretical Comparative Syntax brings together for the first time, significant essays and articles by Naoki Fukui, exploring various topics in the areas of syntactic theory and comparative syntax. The articles have a special focus on the typological differences between English (-type languages) and Japanese (-type languages) and abstract parameters that derive them. Linguistic universals are considered in the light of cross-linguistic variation and typological (parametric) differences are investigated from the viewpoint of universal principles.
The unifying theme of this volume is the nature and structure of invariant principles and parameters (variables) and how they interact to give principled accounts to a variety of seemingly unrelated differences between English and Japanese. These two types of languages provide an ideal testing ground for the principles and their interactions with the parameters since the languages exhibit diverse superficial differences in virtually every aspect of theirlinguistic structures: word order, wh

Coected for the first time in a singe voume, these essays and artices by Naoki Fukui form an outine of some of the most significant and formative contributions to syntactic theory. Focusing particuary on the typoogica differences between Engish/type anguage and Japanese/type anguages, Fukui examines the abstract parameters that both ink and divide them.

These artices constitute a considerabe contribution to the deveopment of the principes-and-parameters mode in its exporation and refinement of theoretica concepts and fundamenta principes of inguistic theory, eading to some of the basic insights that ie behind the minimaist program.

Book Description: Taylor Francis Ltd, United Kingdom, 2006. Hardback. Book Condition: New. 234 x 156 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. Collected for the first time in a single volume, these essays and articles by Naoki Fukui form an outline of some of the most significant and formative contributions to syntactic theory. Focusing particularly on the typological differences between English type language and Japanese type languages, Fukui examines the abstract parameters that both link and divide them. Linguistic universals are considered in the light of cross-linguistic variation and typological (parametric) differences are investigated from the viewpoint of universal principles. The book's main focus is the nature and structure of invariant principles and parameters (variables) and how they interact to give principled accounts to a variety of seemingly unrelated differences between English and Japanese. The contrasts between these two types of language is an ideal testing ground, since the languages are superficially different in virtually every aspect of their linguistic structures from word order and wh-movement, to grammatical agreement and case-marking systems, among many others.These articles constitute a considerable contribution to the development of the principles-and-parameters model in its exploration and refinement of theoretical concepts and fundamental principles of linguistic theory, leading to some of the basic insights that lie behind the minimalist program.
