Unlike previous works, the methodological stance adopted by the author focuses on singling out all the relevant patterns of variation and on pursuing a unified explanation for them. The key to the solution of the puzzle is the idea that the participial affix -n-/-t- and the agreement inflections are not just pieces of morphology inserted post-syntactically, but true heads that enter the computation and are able to manipulate the argumental roles of the verb and to check the EPP. The author’s proposal is properly framed in the context of current debate on interlanguage variation. 2022-05-31T10:27:10Z 2022-05-31T10:27:10Z 2016 book ONIX_20220531_9788864533261_627 2420-8361 9788864533261 9788892732407 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/55343 eng Biblioteca di Studi di Filologia Moderna application/pdf n/a 9788864533261.pdf https://books.fupress.com/isbn/9788864533261 Firenze University Press 10.36253/978-88-6453-326-1 10.36253/978-88-6453-326-1 bf65d21a-78e5-4ba2-983a-dbfa90962870 9788864533261 9788892732407 31 194 Florence open access

description This study offers a novel approach to a longstanding problem in Slavic Linguistics, the formal representation of the Northern Russian participial constructions in -n(o)/-t(o). Unlike previous works, the methodological stance adopted by the author focuses on singling out all the relevant patterns of variation and on pursuing a unified explanation for them. The key to the solution of the puzzle is the idea that the participial affix -n-/-t- and the agreement inflections are not just pieces of morphology inserted post-syntactically, but true heads that enter the computation and are able to manipulate the argumental roles of the verb and to check the EPP.
