Covering linguistic research on empty categories over more than
three decades, this monograph presents the result of an in-depth
syntactic and focus-theoretical investigation of ellipsis in
generative grammar. The phenomenon of ellipsis most generally
refers to the omission of linguistic material, structure and sound.
The central aim of this book is to explain on the basis of
linguistic theorizing of how it is possible that we understand more
than we actually hear. The answer developed throughout this book is
that ellipsis is an interface phenomenon which can only be
explained on the basis of the complex interaction between syntax,
semantics and information structure. Scholars of grammar and
cognitive scientists will profit from reading this book.
