Set in the theoretical framework of generative syntax, and based on an in-depth investigation of the Pseudogapping phenomenon, the topics discussed in the book include (i) the nature of movement in Ellipsis configurations, and the implementation of this movement operation in current syntactic theory, (ii) the question of verb movement or verb ...
