The sixteen contributions which make up this volume are representative of the research currently carried out in Italy on Italian and, more generally, Romance syntax (in the generative tradition). The essays were specially collected to pay homage to Professor Lorenzo Renzi, a scholar who has since the 1960s promoted and shaped the study of Italian syntax in Italy, both through his own work and through a collective enterprise which culminated in the publication of the Grande Grammatica Italiana di Consultazione (3 vol., Bologna, Il Mulino, 1988-1995). Most of the contributors to this volume were engaged in that enterprise as young, unemployed linguists, and are now among the most prominent specialists in the field of Italian syntax.

Arvustused

Sandra Paoli, University of Manchester This publication gathers 16 state-of-the-art contributions by leading scholars, and provides the reader with an insight into some of the issues that have been the object of much research in Italian Syntax. It's invaluable both for the way the issues are presented within the scene of the relevant analyses they have received, relating them to previous and/or parallel studies in the field, and for the reflection points that the data brought forward suggest. Lingua Francisco Ordonez, State University of New York at Stony Brook This book is an excellent and refreshing collection of essays that will be of major interest for linguists working in the Romance languages and in syntactic theory. Researchers who are more intrested in descriptive aspects of Italian will find that the range of data is quite varied and that all contributions are well grounded empirically. For those interested in more theoretical aspects of syntax, this book is an excellent example of the innovative research being done in the sphere of Italian syntax. Journal of Linguistics, Volume 39
