摘 要: 为了限制转换规则和短语结构规则,生成语法专门设立了一些句法条件,即语法模块(grammar modules),包括D-结构层面的X-标杆理论、PP/EPP和题元理论;S-结构层面的格理论、空语类原则ECP、约束理论等。运用这些理论,管约论时期的生成语法成功地解释了一些句法现象,但还有不少句法问题无法解决。于是,在最简方案框架内,D-结构和S-结构从句法操作过程中被清除,认知系统和句法系统之间形成接口层面:LF和PF,合格的句法推导必须满足接口条件(interface conditions)。从语法模块到接口条件的转变,实际上是一个遵循着经济性原则,对普遍语法原则和规则进行简化或是清除的过程。 |

Abstract: Main grammar modules satisfied at the D-structure include the X-bar theory, PP/EPP and the theta criterion; satisfied at S-structure are primarily the case theory, ECP, the binding theory etc. In the MP framework, D-structure and S-structure are eliminated from the syntactic operations, LF and PF are the only interface levels of linguistic representation, and eligible syntactic derivations must satisfy the interface conditions. On the base of the economy principle, the shift from the grammar modules to the interface conditions involves actually a minimalist research process in which principles and rules in the Universal Grammar have been preserved, simplified and even eliminated. |
