Frau Irina Nikolaeva, PhD (SOAS, University of London) hält am 31.05.2017 einen Gastvortrag zum Thema "Prominent Internal Possessors as a challenge to the theory of agreement".
The talk will introduce possessive constructions in which internal possessors have a greater deal of syntactic prominence than typically encountered. Contrary to the usual assumptions about grammatical agreement, the possessor controls agreement features on the verb. Various syntactic analyses proposed for a number of typologically diverse languages and their implications for syntactic theory will be discussed.
