This volume includes contributions offering up-to-date analyses of non-canonical word orders (fronting, inversion, dislocations, and cleft constructions) in Italian and in Italian in a contrastive perspective with other Romance and/or Germanic languages. All studies rely on a strong empirical basis.
This volume aims at offering an up-to-date survey on non-canonical word orders and their interplay with information structure and discourse organization. The contributions analyze different non-canonical syntactic structures (fronting, inversion, dislocations, and cleft constructions), focusing on Italian alone or on Italian in a contrastive perspective with one or more Romance (French, Romanian, Portuguese, Spanish) and/or Germanic (English and German) languages. The authors tackle the main issue of the volume from a variety of perspectives and by relying on different theoretical frameworks. At the same time, they all offer a fine-grained description of the structures analyzed on the basis of a solid empirical foundation.
