Universal Grammar (RLE Linguistics A

<p>This collection of 15 articles reflects Edward Keenan's long-standing research interests in the comparative syntax of the languages of the world. It includes two seminal 'foundation' articles <i>Noun Phrase Accessibility and Universal Grammar</i> (with Bernard Comrie) and <i>Towards a Universal Definition of 'Subject of'</i>. Most of the other articles have appeared in a variety of relatively inaccessible places and so this book brings together for the first time a large body of work supporting the research directions taken in the foundation articles. In addition one article of a psycholinguistic sort was specially prepared for this volume.</p>
