I adopt a dependent approach to Case and Agreement, following Marantz (1991); Preminger (2011;2014). In this approach to modeling Case, Case is a reflection of structural relations between objects which participate in the Case system; in contrast to an Agree-based approach to Case modeling, in which Case reflects Agreement relations between objects which participate in the Case system. I assume that CPs participate in the Case system. I argue that a CP in a dependent Case configuration licenses subject extraction, but a CP in a non-depedent Case configuration does not. This provides a unified account for several otherwise mysterious\u0097and understudied\u0097subject\/object extraction asymmetries in English.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Kenyon Branan (MIT) Title:Attraction at a distance: A\u0092-movement and Case Time: Tuesday 4\/7, 1-2pm Place: 32-D461 This talk is about how A\u0092-movement of a subject is licensed (or not) by the structural position of the CP from which subject extraction takes place.
