More about the book
The book presents a theory regarding the placement of adverbial adjuncts within the Principles and Parameters framework, arguing that adverbials generally attach freely to any syntactic projection rather than adhering to specific principles. It examines various adverbial types, including predicational, domain expressions, participant prepositional phrases, and resultative and conditional clauses. The analysis draws primarily from English, Chinese, French, and Italian, with additional references to German and Japanese, showcasing a comprehensive approach to understanding adverbial usage across languages.
