Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course will explore theoretical and empirical issues surrounding the syntax of relative clauses. We will discuss the main types of relative clauses, and their analyses. Topics that we will pay special attention to include the copy theory of movement, internal versus external merge, matching effects, case syncretisms, and reconstruction effects. Concomitantly, we will look at some of the main studies in the processing literature on relative clauses, focusing in particular on subject vs. object processing asymmetries.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Students are expected to do the readings before coming to class, come to class, participate actively by asking and answering questions, take turns in protocoling the sessions, make a presentation with a handout, and write either an overview paper, or a paper analyzing something having to do with the topic of the proseminar and giving arguments for preferring a given analysis to alternatives from the literature. Alternatively, the paper writing requirement can be substituted by a taking a test on the last session of the course (i.e. 26.06.2017), depending on each student's preference.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Students have a command of the literature on the typology and (main) analyses of relative clauses.
