内容記述 In this paper, I investigate the syntactic status and function of expletive there, which has been analyzed just as a filler of the empty subject position, and make an attempt to achieve a unified analysis of there-constructions. In the previous studies, there-constructions are classified into two types: existential and presentational sentences, as illustrated in (1) and (2), respectively. (1) a. There remained a relatively small amount of activity in Canadian Studies. b. There is a solution. (2) a. There walked into the room a tall man with blond hair. b. Suddenly there entered the room a six-edged troll. It has been assumed that the sentences in (2) have a different history of derivation from those in (1); since the predicates in (2) are, unlike those in (1), not restricted to an unaccusative type, expletive there is inserted after the rightward movement of the subject from [Spec, IP]: (3) [IP [IP there [VP V (PP)]] Subj ] This analysis, however, makes a wrong prediction with respect to verb selection. If there plays no role but as a dummy subject, (4) are wrongly predicted to be grammatical. (4) a. *There laughed during the class many students. b. *There ate an apple a boy with glasses. Furthermore, some unaccusative verbs such as die and open are also disallowed, although there is a position where there can be inserted: (5) a. *There died some people in that fire. b. *There suddenly opened a window behind me. In order to solve these problems, I propose that expletive there plays a significant role in interpretation, serving as an external argument, which I assume to be located in [Spec, vP]. Taking into consideration that the VPs in (1) and (2) contain an explicit or implicit locative expression, I define there as a scene-setting argument, which is licensed only under a predicational relation with VP. This proposal can correctly rule out (4) and (5) since their VPs cannot be predicated of a location (or scene). Under the assumption that there is an external argument, it is expected that unergative and transitive verbs cannot appear in there-constructions since their subjects are also external arguments. The grammaticality of (2) seems to be problematic, but a close examination of the predicates in (2) reveals that verbs of manner of motion can take an unaccusative structure when accompanied by a directional phrase, I use resultative constructions and causative alternation as unaccusative diagnostics. (6) She danced / swam free of her captors. (7) We ran the mouse through the maze.

Since the predicates in (2) are all verbs of manner of motion with a directional phrase, their underlying structure is the same as that of (1), as illustrated in (8).
