Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course is aimed at students interested in generative syntax and its consecutive (constantly changing) "phases".
Assessment and permitted materials
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
The goal of the course is to introduce and discuss the intricacies of the minimalist framework and at the same time set the relevant problems against the GB-background. Due to that, some past GB-experience is necessary to follow the course.
Examination topics
We will be using two recently published minimalist course books (Understanding Minimalism and A Course in Minimalist Syntax) interchangeably with the original sources.
