초록

In this paper, I argue that the generalization on the island repair, which is simply based on the dichotomic analysis of contrastivity of correlates, cannot provide a complete account for the fragment data in terms of island sensitivity. Refuting the generalization I propose that island insensitivity of non-contrastive fragments can be induced not by island repairability but by island evasion strategies such as short and cleft sources. I further claim that island evasion strategies can be applicable to the derivation of fragments if the correlate of a fragment is present inside the choice function scope. Therefore, a conclusion is drawn that non-contrastive fragments are not sensitive to an island since a choice function interpretation triggered by an indefinite correlate can render island-escaping effect without movement involved.

Abstract

In this paper, I argue that the generalization on the island repair, which is simply based on the dichotomic analysis of contrastivity of correlates, cannot provide a complete account for the fragment data in terms of island sensitivity. Refuting the generalization I propose that island insensitivity of non-contrastive fragments can be induced not by island repairability but by island evasion strategies such as short and cleft sources. I further claim that island evasion strategies can be applicable to the derivation of fragments if the correlate of a fragment is present inside the choice function scope. Therefore, a conclusion is drawn that non-contrastive fragments are not sensitive to an island since a choice function interpretation triggered by an indefinite correlate can render island-escaping effect without movement involved.
