Formal Aspects of Chinese Grammar

About this book

-->

This book is a collection of seven articles published in the past decade by the author. These articles are concerned with various issues including possessor raising, null subject, null object, pied-piping in logical form, focus marker, question formation, and adverbial reflexive. Each article has made a contribution to its topic. More importantly, these seven articles, taken as a whole, also constitute a window through which readers may look at the issues from a formal syntactic perspective and get a sense as how works have been conducted in the framework concerned, how arguments have been constructed, and how justifications have been provided in the field.

-->0 Readership: Senior undergraduate students, graduate students pursuing master's or doctoral degrees, university lecturers and language-related professionals.
-->Chinese, Syntax, Anaphor, Focus, Interrogative, Possessor Raising, Null Subject and Object0
