Henry Smith develops a theory of syntactic case and examines its synchronic and diachronic consequences. Within a unification-based framework, the book draws out pervasive patterns in the relationship between morphosyntax 'linking' and grammatical function, with an examination of a wide array of synchronic and diachronic data.
