Resumo: | The present squib’s discussion is centered on Kayne’s (1994, 2010) proposals, which postulate a direct relation between the order of asymmetric c-command relations and linear precedence relations at PF. To put it briefly, Kayne argues that asymmetric c-command is mapped to linear precedence at PF and concludes that there is a universal hierarchical/linear order: Specifier Head-Complement. This universal order would predict the canonical order SVO found in many languages. Any other linear order, whether canonical or not, would then be obtained through movement operations. Details of the arguments in Kayne (1994, 2010) are presented and discussed in the present squib with focus on two goals: first, to show that the strict mapping of asymmetric c-command to linear precedence is questionable and, second, that linear precedence relations are not relevant for syntax, with only hierarchy playing a fundamental role ”” as also argued elsewhere (see CHOMSKY, 1995, 2004, 2005, 2008; URIAGEREKA, 1999; GUIMARA˜ ES, 2000). In doing this, circularity problems in Kayne’s arguments are highlighted as well as other issues. Subsequently, an alternative account of the relationship between syntax and PF is suggested, in an effort to maintain the spirit of Kayne’s LCA while at the same time making it compatible with more recent minimalist views. |

Em suma, Kayne argumenta que c-comando assimétrico e mapeado como precedência linear em PF e conclui que ha uma ordem universal ´ hierárquica e linear: Especificador-Nucleo-Complemento. Esta ordem universal prevê, portanto, a ordem canônica SVO encontrada em várias línguas. Quaisquer outras ordens lineares, canônicas ou não, seriam, então, obtidas por meio de operações de movimento. ˜ Detalhes dos argumentos de Kayne (1994, 2010) são apresentados e discutidos neste squib com o foco em dois objetivos: primeiramente, mostrar que o mapeamento estrito de c-comando assimétrico em precedência linear e questionável e, em segundo lugar, que relações de precedência linear n ˆ ao s ˜ ao relevantes para a sintaxe, apenas a hierarquia tendo í um papel fundamental ”” como argumentado alhures (ver CHOMSKY, 1995, 2004, 2005, 2008; URIAGEREKA, 1999; GUIMARAES, 2000). Ao fazer isso, problemas ˜ de circularidade nos argumentos de Kayne são assinalados, assim como outras questões. ˜ Subsequentemente, uma proposta alternativa da relação entre a sintaxe e PF ˜ e sugerida, ´ num esforço de manter o espírito do LCA de Kayne, ao mesmo tempo em que o tornamos compatível com visões minimalistas mais recentes.Caderno de Squibs: Temas em estudos formais da linguagem2016-06-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/cs/article/view/7651Caderno de Squibs: Temas em estudos formais da linguagem; v. 2 n. 1 (2016): Caderno de Squibs: Temas em estudos formais da linguagem; 20-302447-1372reponame:Caderno de Squibsinstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/cs/article/view/7651/6316Faria, Pablo Picasso Feliciano deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-10-02T11:40:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/7651Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/csPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/cs/oaimarcuslunguinho@gmail.com||marcuslunguinho@gmail.com|| gramaticagerativaunb@gmail.com2447-13722447-1372opendoar:2019-10-02T11:40:53Caderno de Squibs - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false |
