영어 분리보문소구 영역에 대한 자질 기반 접근 : 화제와 초점을 중심으로

A Feature-Based Approach to English Split CP-Space: Focusing on Topic and Focus

초록/요약 도움말

본 연구의 주된 동기는 영어 보문소 영역(CP-space)에 대해 Chomsky의 (1998, 1999, 2001, 2005, 2007, 2008) 제안과 Rizzi (1997, 2001b, 2003)의 제안을 절충적으로 적용하여, 좀 더 설명적 타당성을 지닌 자질 점검에 기반을 둔 영어 분리 보문소구 영역의 통사적 구조를 구안하는 것이다.
