"The Grammar of Raising and Control "surveys analyses across a
range of theoretical frameworks from Rosenbaum's classic Standard
Theory analysis (1967) to current proposals within the Minimalist
Program, and provides readers with a critical understanding of
these, helping them in the process to develop keen insights into
the strengths and weaknesses of syntactic arguments in general.
Distills a very successful graduate course in syntax from two
prominent figures in the field, covering analyses from a range of
theoretical frameworks.
Provides readers with an understanding of the various perspectives
represented in generative syntax, using a particular class of
grammatical constructions as a means of examining the evolution of
syntactic theory over the last thirty years.
Helps students to develop keen insights into the strengths and
weaknesses of syntactic arguments.
Includes excerpts from six important works that allow students to
familiarize themselves with the original literature while also
providing discussion of the theoretical context in which they were
written.
