    Series Statement: Linguistics & Philosophy Volume 6
    Content: "This study presents new insights into null subjects, topic drop and the interpretation of topic-dropped elements. Besides providing an empirical data survey, it offers explanations to well-known problems, e.g. syncretisms in the context of null-subject licensing or the marginality of dropping an element which carries oblique case. The book constitutes a valuable source for both empirically and theoretically interested (generative) linguists."--

    Content: This monograph deals with argument drop in the German prefield and it presents new insights into null subjects, topic drop and the interpretation of topic dropped elements. Major issues are (inter alia) the drop of structurally vs. obliquely cased arguments and the question on which basis nominative/accusative and dative/genitive can be kept apart. Furthermore, it is shown that the (im)possibility of phi-feature mismatches concerning the antecedent and gap in topic drop dialogues allows to differentiate between coreference and "real" (quantifier) binding. Aside from topic drop, (1st/2nd vs. 3rd person) null subjects are investigated across a couple of unrelated languages, also focusing on the presence of syncretisms within verbal inflectional paradigms. It is proven that 1st/2nd person null subjects in German are not an instance of antecedent-dependent topic drop but that they are licensed by discrete verbal inflectional endings. Thus, according to this property, German can be classified as a partial pro-drop language. Next to theoretical discussions and considerations this book offers a broad (empirically covered) data basis, which makes it suitable for both theoretically and empirically interested (generative) linguists.

    Content: This monograph deals with argument drop in the German prefield. Chapter 1 gives an overview of the book. Chapter 2 focuses on topic drop of structurally vs. obliquely cased arguments. The question by which factors structural and oblique cases can be kept apart is discussed in great detail. It is claimed that oblique case marking is the spell-out of a certain semantic content, namely an actant’s involvement within a complex event, which needs to be represented at the surface – this, however, is impossible under ellipsis. Thus, the gap’s content must be reconstructed via identity with its antecedent. In chapter 3, I show that parts of the gap resulting from topic drop can be bound under predicate identity (in the sense of semantic equivalence) in context and target. In dependence of whether the binder of (the bindee part of) the gap is referential or not, identity between antecedent and gap is obligatory (or not). Chapter 4 is an investigation of 1st/2nd (vs. 3rd) person referential null subjects that can be dropped independently of the presence of a discourse antecedent and despite apparent syncretisms within verbal inflectional paradigms. As is shown, German out of the blue-drop is neither topic drop nor diary drop, but an instance of inflection-dependent subject omission.
