Description:

This volume collects six articles by leading scholars of syntax on the subject of inversion in the Romance Languages. The Romance Languages document remarkable variations in subject word order in different constructions, and have various restrictions in their occurrence. No consensus has emerged yet on what the fundamental parameters are for such variations. This volume does not attempt to create a consensus, but tries to represent different sides of the debatefairly and bring them into dialogue.

No consensus has emerged on what the paramaters are for such variations. This volume does not attempt to create a consensus, but tries to represent and bring into dialogue the different sides of the debate.
