It provides a typology of four main quantified noun phrases in French (existential, universal, negative and \u003ci\u003ewh-\u003c\/i\u003e), detailing their syntactic, semantic and prosodic behaviors and showing that they can be reduced to two classes—Split-DP structures or Floating quantification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRelying on syntax and semantics, the book establishes a three-way structural typology of \u003ci\u003ewh\u003c\/i\u003e in-situ phrases and extends it to existentials. It pays special attention to the prosodic properties associated with their different readings and proposes an analysis of the distribution of subextraction and pied-piping. Similarly based on semantic and syntactic tests, the book reveals N(egative) words to be universal Quantifiers. It proposes a new structure of N-words in terms of constituent negation and includes a detailed analysis of the difference between \u003ci\u003enot an N\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003enot all the N\u003c\/i\u003e in French. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-04-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789400735521\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-007-0621-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 260\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47661471924364,"sku":"9789400735521","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789400735521.jpg?v=1776431119","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789400735521","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
