This article concerns the nature of the empty category in Korean obligatory control (OC) in comparison with OC null subject in English. It demonstrates that the syntactic distribution of the null subject in Korean OC is not the same as that of the null subject in English OC, with respect to standard diagnostics for OC PRO, such as uniqueness of the overt antecedent, locality, and c-command. The variation in the null subject in Korean OC poses several problems to purely structural approaches, such as the Movement Theory of Control (e.g., Hornstein 1999) and the PRO analysis of Control (e.g., Landau 2000). Alternatively, this paper proposes that Korean OC null subjects are a subclass of pro with specific restrictions on occurrence, based on the fact that the syntactic distribution of OC null subjects is indistinguishable from that of controlled reflexive and pronoun subjects in a non-control complement clause; moreover, the OC effect is created not by a distinct structure, but by an intricate array of heterogeneous factors, such as morphological cues, the semantics of a verb and certain discourse conditions. Adopting recently developed discussions on null subject (Holmberg 2009; Holmberg & Robert 2013), this paper attempts to offer a unified analysis of different types of Korean null subject by reducing OC null subject to the very same empty category, pro.
Abstract
This article concerns the nature of the empty category in Korean obligatory control (OC) in comparison with OC null subject in English. It demonstrates that the syntactic distribution of the null subject in Korean OC is not the same as that of the null subject in English OC, with respect to standard diagnostics for OC PRO, such as uniqueness of the overt antecedent, locality, and c-command. The variation in the null subject in Korean OC poses several problems to purely structural approaches, such as the Movement Theory of Control (e.g., Hornstein 1999) and the PRO analysis of Control (e.g., Landau 2000). Alternatively, this paper proposes that Korean OC null subjects are a subclass of pro with specific restrictions on occurrence, based on the fact that the syntactic distribution of OC null subjects is indistinguishable from that of controlled reflexive and pronoun subjects in a non-control complement clause; moreover, the OC effect is created not by a distinct structure, but by an intricate array of heterogeneous factors, such as morphological cues, the semantics of a verb and certain discourse conditions. Adopting recently developed discussions on null subject (Holmberg 2009; Holmberg & Robert 2013), this paper attempts to offer a unified analysis of different types of Korean null subject by reducing OC null subject to the very same empty category, pro.
