{"product_id":"9783110206050","title":"On Pied-Piping: Wh-Movement and Beyond","description":" \u003cmeta http-equiv=\"content-type\" content=\"text\/html; charset=iso-8859-1\"\u003e  \u003cbr\u003ePied-piping, the phenomenon that wh-movement may target categories not marked with the feature [wh], has generally been considered idiosyncratic and pathological. \u003cem\u003eOn Pied-Piping \u003c\/em\u003e argues that this assessment is not correct. The book presents a compilation of crosslinguistic generalizations on pied-piping and a theory that derives them. Pied-piping is incorporated into a derivational theory of successive cyclic wh-movement that includes input-output optimization, the operation Agree, and phase theory. The resulting theory is a step towards closing a long-standing gap in syntactic theorizing.
