About this book

This volume contains a selection of refereed and revised papers, originally presented at the 32nd Linguistics Symposium on Romance Languages, dealing with linguistic theory as applied to the Romance languages, and on empirical studies on the acquisition of Romance, with studies on Romanian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Romansch and Latin.
The theoretical section contains contributions concentrating on specific properties of Romance at the syntax/semantics interface, on morphosyntactic issues, on subject licensing and case, and on phonology. The acquisition section includes contributions on first, bilingual and second language acquisition of functional structure, word structure, quantification and stress.

Reviews

Isabelle Lemée, Dublin City University, Ireland on Linguist List 15.298, Jan. 2004:
These articles touch upon a wide range of Romance languages and are a good representation of the recent years' focus on the question of a relationship between abstract linguistic structures and issues in performance captured in empirical terms.
