| 内容記述 | This paper investigates the mechanism of VP-ellipsis (VPE) in English, focusing on the fact that only Modal-stranding VPE has been allowed throughout its history. This empirical fact apparently contradicts a theoretical prediction based on a recent PF-deletion approach to VPE Merchant (2001, 2008), Goldberg (2005)): if a language has VPE and V-to-T movement, it can produce sentences with "Lexical-V-stranding VPE." This paper aims to provide a theoretical account for the contradictory fact under the LF-copy analysis of VPE within the recent Minimalist framework (Chomsky (2000, 2001)). Although the feature-driven deletion analysis appears plausible in providing a unified account for VPE and pseudogapping, their syntactic and semantic properties clearly show some problems. In addition, the absence of Lexical-V-stranding VPE in OE and ME raises an empirical problem to the feature-driven deletion analysis of VPE, given modals were categorized as lexical verbs and V-to-T movement was attested in OE and ME. This paper proposes the LF-copy analysis built on Agree system, in which an ellipsis site within VPE is filled by a phonologically null pronominal (E-pro). This empty category is licensed if the derivation of its host phrase converges, and identified and made visible for LF-copying by the Agree relation the result of which is morphologically realized on its probe. Finally, it is shown that the proposed analysis overcomes the theoretical and empirical problems with the feature-driven deletion approach, and neatly accounts for the development of VPE in the history of English. | |||||
