초록

Despite its conceptual elegance, the probe-goal theory established in the current version of the Minimalist Program faces some problems in analyzing there- constructions where the clause is headed by defective T. An analysis of treating the postcopular nominal as a kind of predicate can solve these problems, but it also falls short of explanatory adequacy in dealing with some other aspects in there-constructions where an unaccusative verb is selected. This paper identifies two different types of there- constructions, arguing that only one of them involves a multiple Agree relation. While discussing what it takes to operate an effective Case- assigning mechanism, the paper introduces the Revised Maximization Principle and the Feature-Based Relativized Minimal Link Condition.

Abstract

Despite its conceptual elegance, the probe-goal theory established in the current version of the Minimalist Program faces some problems in analyzing there- constructions where the clause is headed by defective T. An analysis of treating the postcopular nominal as a kind of predicate can solve these problems, but it also falls short of explanatory adequacy in dealing with some other aspects in there-constructions where an unaccusative verb is selected. This paper identifies two different types of there- constructions, arguing that only one of them involves a multiple Agree relation. While discussing what it takes to operate an effective Case- assigning mechanism, the paper introduces the Revised Maximization Principle and the Feature-Based Relativized Minimal Link Condition.
