초록

The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 16(2), 125-142. It has been observed that topic phrases in Korean are restricted in their distribution: They cannot occur in factive complements, the antecedent of conditionals, and relative clauses. Built upon Shin (1987), who noted the similarity of meaning among the topic, the antecedent of conditionals, and the relative clause, this paper develops an analysis of this restriction based on the semantic tripartite structure proposed by Diesing (1992), Partee (1995), and Hajičová et al. (1998). It is argued that the topic phrase and the three constructions all share a common semantic feature, that is, presupposition, one characteristic of which is to be raised and mapped to the restrictive clause at LF. Since each of the three constructions competes against the topic phrase for the same position, the co-occurrence restriction is derived.

Abstract

The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 16(2), 125-142. It has been observed that topic phrases in Korean are restricted in their distribution: They cannot occur in factive complements, the antecedent of conditionals, and relative clauses. Built upon Shin (1987), who noted the similarity of meaning among the topic, the antecedent of conditionals, and the relative clause, this paper develops an analysis of this restriction based on the semantic tripartite structure proposed by Diesing (1992), Partee (1995), and Hajičová et al. (1998). It is argued that the topic phrase and the three constructions all share a common semantic feature, that is, presupposition, one characteristic of which is to be raised and mapped to the restrictive clause at LF. Since each of the three constructions competes against the topic phrase for the same position, the co-occurrence restriction is derived.
