초록

English emphatic reflexives (ER) have at least three different distributional possibilities: adnominal ER, adverbial ER in the VP final position, and medial ER after an auxiliary. Each of these three ER types also has different semantic contributions. In this paper, we first examine the distributional possibilities of each ER in detail together with its semantic and pragmatic contributions and then offer a lexicalist analysis that can capture these grammatical properties. In particular, the paper shows that the lexicalist analysis, allowing tight interactions among syntax and semantics, can serve a viable way to capture the mismatches between syntax and semantics in English ER constructions.

Abstract

English emphatic reflexives (ER) have at least three different distributional possibilities: adnominal ER, adverbial ER in the VP final position, and medial ER after an auxiliary. Each of these three ER types also has different semantic contributions. In this paper, we first examine the distributional possibilities of each ER in detail together with its semantic and pragmatic contributions and then offer a lexicalist analysis that can capture these grammatical properties. In particular, the paper shows that the lexicalist analysis, allowing tight interactions among syntax and semantics, can serve a viable way to capture the mismatches between syntax and semantics in English ER constructions.
