The term 'Maya', in Indian traditions, refers to our sensory
perception of the world and, as such, to a superficial reality (or
'un-reality') that we must look beyond to find the inner reality of
things. Applied to the study of language, we perceive sounds, a
superficial reality, and then we seek structures, the underlying
reality in what we call phonology, morphology, and syntax. This
volume starts with an introduction by the editors, which shows how
the various papers contained in the volume reflect the spectrum of
research interests of Andrea Calabrese, as well as his influence on
the work of colleagues and his students. Contributors, united in
their search for the abstract structures that underlie the
appearances of languages include linguists such as Adriana
Belletti, Paola Beninca, Jonathan Bobaljik, Gugliemo Cinque, David
Embick, Mirko Grimaldi, Harry van der Hulst, Michael Kenstowicz,
Maria Rita Manzini, Andrew Nevins, Elizabeth Pyatt, Luigi Rizzi,
Leonardo Savoia, Laura Vanelli, Bert Vaux, Susi Wurmbrand, as well
as a few junior researchers including Mariachiara Berizzi, Giuliano
Bocci, Stefano Canalis, Silvio Cruschina, Irina Monich, Beata
Moskal, Diego Pescarini, Joseph Perry, Roberto Petrosino, and Kobey
Schwayder.
