....se stessa M. dice che DL P. non ne parla abbastanza clitic of herself Maria said that P. not talks enough I will not explore this further, since the significance of reconstruction as a diagnostic for the existence of traces requires discussion beyond the scope of this paper (see Higgins (1973) and Barss (1986)) Clitics and Island Effects Iatridou 27 violations 15 A trace in the DL position has the status of an intermediate trace in an A bar chain (it is neither an operator, nor a variable) and it is dubious whether intermediate traces cause WCO violations. Unlike parasitic gaps, which only seem to ....

Generalized Transformations and the Theory of Grammar - Frank, Kroch (1995)   (7 citations)  (Correct)

....of all the traces of successive cyclic movement. In the remainder of this section, we will investigate two more phenomena whose analyses have relied crucially the existence of intermediate traces. The first of these involves so called connectivity or reconstruction effects, as discussed by Barss (1986) among others. The second concerns the relationship between the locality of syntactic movement and scope interpretation. We will argue that the absence of intermediate traces has no ill consequences in either of these empirical domains, and that a TAG based treatment may even be empirically ....

....reconstruction in (49)b, moving the wh phrase back to the intermediate [spec,cp] yields a representation in which the reflexive may be locally bound by the matrix subject. Another account of these facts uses traces left by movement as potential loci into which binding may occur (cf. Gu eron 1984, Barss 1986, Hornstein 1984, inter alia) On such an analysis, the trace in the intermediate [spec,cp] provides a position from which the matrix subject is an accessible binder for an anaphor, as shown in the following example of overt wh movement to this intermediate position: 50) Marsha i wonders which ....

Scrambling, Reconstruction and Subject Binding - Frank, Lee, Rambow (1995)   (Correct)

....in which it formed a level intermediate between D structure and S structure, and was a component of a model of grammar which lacked LF, a level which we employ. 39 There are a number of apparent counterexamples to our prediction. One involves sentences of the following type, discussed by Barss (1986): i) Those pictures of himself seem to John to be the most beautiful of all. Here, in contrast to (67) the raised reflexive does appear to be able to be bound by an antecedent which c commands only the base position. Though we have no explanation for this fact, we suspect that this binding ....
