5.2.4.Bibliographical notes
quickinfo

Although sentential complementation has been a central concern in syntactic research over the last fifty years, it is often difficult to point to specific studies; the data is often found in traditional grammars already and discussed by many authors. Of course, it is possible to identify several (especially early) seminal studies like Kiparsky & Kiparsky (1970), Bresnan (1972), and Grimshaw (1979), but much of what is found in this (and the previous) chapter has been developed over the years by various authors, and it is therefore easier to refer to specific studies during our discussions. Nevertheless, we want to highlight a number of studies that we used in our discussion of some more special issues. The distinction between control and subject raising is one of the main issues in the first two subsections of Section 5.2. Control theory has been a continuous concern of generative grammar since Rosenbaum (1967). We refer the reader to Williams (1980), Manzini (1983), Koster (1984a/1984b), Van Riemsdijk & Williams (1986), Haegeman (1994), Jaworska (1999), Hornstein (2001) and Dubinsky & Davies (2005) for reviews of and contributions to the more theoretical discussion. Other important studies, which also discuss the relevant Dutch data, are Bennis & Hoekstra (1989a/1989c), Van Haaften (1991), Everaert (1991), Vanden Wyngaerd (1994), Broekhuis et al. (1995), and Petter (1998). Bennis & Hoekstra (1989a/1989c) also provided the starting point of the discussion of subject raising in Section 5.2.2.2.
