The book presents a compilation of crosslinguistic generalizations on pied-piping and a theory that derives them. Pied-piping is incorporated into a derivational theory of successive cyclic wh-movement that includes input-output optimization, the operation Agree, and phase theory. The resulting theory is a step towards closing a long-standing gap in syntactic theorizing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Gruyter Mouton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47586394046615,"sku":"9783110206050","price":22012.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783110206050.webp?v=1774963954","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/on-pied-piping-9783110206050","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
