Syntactic movement is a pervasive phenomenon in natural language
and, as such, has played a key role in syntactic theorizing. Nonetheless,
an understanding of the mechanism that allows a constituent to
appear to the right of its base-generated position has remained elusive.
This groundbreaking research monograph aims to address this gap in
our knowledge by expanding the inventory of languages and data sets
traditionally considered in the literature. Specifically, Ortega-Santos
analyzes the interplay between focus, word order and ellipsis in Spanish.
A major finding that emerges from the analysis is that the tension between
linearization requirements and rightward movement is diminished by
ellipsis. Current debates on the syntax of the VOS order and preverbal
subjects in Null-Subject Languages also figure prominently in the
discussion, as novel empirical evidence for the existence of null expletives
is provided: a non-trivial issue for our understanding of the Extended
Projection Principle and subjecthood across languages.
