The Higher Functional Field by Cecilia Poletto, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This work investigates the syntax of the higher portion of the functional structure of the clause using comparative data from hundreds of Northern Italian dialects. The area contains dialects that are different in most ways yet homogenous syntactically, making it an ideal ground for analyzingmicro-variations in syntax. The book sheds new light on debated problems such as subject-clitic inversion, verb movement and subject positions, and the structure of the higher functional phrases. | The Higher Functional Field by Cecilia Poletto, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
