| Citazioni | In our approach we will give a unified account of Subject assignment and Object assignment. The latter will be used to capture such oppositions as between:
(2) a. John (AgSubj) gave the book (GoObj) to
Peter (Rec)
b. John (AgSubj) gave Peter (RecObj) the
book (Go)
We shall interpret Obj assignment as defining a secondary “vantage point”, once the primary vantage point has been fixed through Subj assignment. |
