The Morphosyntax of Albanian and Aromanian Varieties - Case, Agreement, Complementation

This book deals with Albanian, including the dialects spoken in Southern Italy, and with the Aromanian spoken in Southern Albania. These languages are set in the context of current generative research on syntax, morphology, language variation and contact - yielding insights into key morphosyntactic notions of case, agreement, complementation, and into phenomena such as Differential Object Marking, the Person Case Constraint, linkers and control.

Report

"[...] a state-of-the-art monograph, serving also as a trendsetter in the analysis of contact languages (accounting for such issues as morphosyntax, lexicon, bilingualism), in general, and Eastern Romance, in particular. It goes without saying, based on all of the above, that this volume is intended for specialists in theoretical linguistics (with various subfields) working in a generative/minimalist framework."
