Owen. Argument composition and the lexicon: lexical and periphrastic causatives in Korean
Elizabeth Owen Bratt
Publisher: Stanford University.
Publication date: 1996.
Number of pages: 581.This thesis explores the properties of Korean lexical and periphrastic causatives as a key to issues of constituent structure, case marking, complementation, and the organization of the grammar into the lexicon and syntactic structure.
The analysis, set within the framework of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar, treats both forms of causative as syntactically monoclausal and semantically biclausal. Argument composition resolves the challenge that monoclausal periphrastic causatives present to a monotonic syntax by lexically specifying how the causative auxiliary can inherit arguments from the causativized verb.
