Description

Thematic Theory in Syntax and Interpretation explores the crucial relationship between lexical argument structure and syntactic theory through thematic roles. Originally published in 1990, this Routledge Library Edition examines how thematic role assignment interacts with movement processes, addressing key explanatory problems in nominalisation. The book's second part investigates the connection between thematic roles and control mechanisms, with detailed analysis of implicit arguments, arbitrary control, and adverbs of quantification. A unified theory of control is presented that integrates obligatory and optional control patterns, making this text an essential resource for students and scholars studying syntax, grammatical structure, and linguistic theory. The work provides comprehensive coverage of how thematic interpretation operates within modern syntactic frameworks.
