This book is an in-depth study of information structure within semantic, syntactic and prosodic domains. The semantic classification of focus and topic phrases provides implications for compositionality and positional restrictions. Drawing on experimental studies with novel data, prosodic and syntactic analyses offer new perspectives for the Minimalist Program specifically for movement operations, functional categories and phase theory.
