Congratulations to
Bradley Larson for his
squib with
Norbert Hornstein, "A note on P-stranding and adjunct extraction from nominals," to appear in
Linguistic Inquiry. The paper identifies a problem for a unified analysis of adjunct extraction and preposition stranding. Prohibitions of adjunct extraction are obviated under sluicing while prohibitions of P-stranding are not.
