Abstract:

My gratitude first goes to Bruce Croft. I am most thankful for his invaluable support throughout my academic years at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. His advice was insightful, and I was always encouraged to challenge the deeper exploration. I thank David Stemple for his valuable comments and encouragement. I am very grateful to Jamie Callan. He always showed me his willingness to support and encourage my research. I thank Chisato Kitagawa. Theoretical background of this dissertation benefited from frequent discussions with him. I thank Roger Higgins. It was always delightful to listen to or read his knowledgeable and insightful linguistic comments. Thank you, Sonia, for your patience- an invisible, but priceless support. Thank you, Meli and Vivi. You may or may not know, but your presence contributed greatly to this work. My last and highest gratitude goes to my parents, Terumi and Tomoko Fujii, and to my grandmother, Asae Saito, who died when this dissertation was still in progress.
