The class will try to fill the gap between "text-book" syntax
and "real-world" syntax.

We will critically review and discuss the development and refinement
of generative syntax since late 1980s including the Minimalist
Program.  Special emphasis will be placed on the theories of
movement, binding, phrase structure and LF.

The students will also read and present some journal/book articles,
and write a "squib" (= short paper) in consultation with the
instructor.
