The book compares previous attempts to account for adjuncts which have tended to use additional mechanisms or syntactic operations as a jumping-off point from which to propose a new way forward for analyzing them grounded in minimalist theory. Adopting an approach in the spirit of the strong minimalist thesis (SMT), Bode suggests an analysis of adjuncts which applies a minimalist approach based on theoretical simplicity, one which does not resort to extra mechanisms in capturing the empirical properties of adjuncts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffering a comprehensive overview of research on adjuncts and foundational minimalist principles, this book will be of particular interest to graduate students and practicing researchers interested in syntax.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefanie Bode\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032082488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032082486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Stefanie Bode","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075481956607,"sku":"9781032082486","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f29621e3-34c4-450d-9b81-bb99e16bbfaf.jpg?v=1685459681","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/casting-a-minimalist-eye-on-stefanie-bode-9781032082486","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
