Argument structure. Grimshaw, J. The MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, US, 1990. Pages: x, 202abstract bibtex "Argument Structure" is a contribution to linguistics at the interface between lexical syntax and lexical semantics. It will be of interest not only to linguists who focus on the nature and form of linguistic representations but also to psychologists who study the acquisition and use of language. It formulates an original and highly predictive theory of argument structure that accounts for a large number of syntactic phenomena. The main analytical focus is on passives, nominals, psychological predicates, and the theory of external arguments. In the course of "Argument Structure" Jane Grimshaw suggests that, contrary to the prevailing view, argument structure is in fact structured; it encodes prominence relations among arguments that reflect both their thematic and their aspectual properties. The prominence relations support a new theory of external arguments with far-reaching consequences for the syntactic behavior of predicates and the nature of cross-categorical variation in argument structure.
