“…To explain this, different suggestions have been made in the literature, which can be divided into three broad categories. First, the subject may be licensed clauseinternally, by participial T/Asp (Ojea 2011;Helland and Pitz 2014) or Infl (Reuland 1983), which can somehow case license its subject despite being non-finite. Second, it may be assumed that the subject is case licensed by an element outside the participial adjunct, as suggested by Lee (1987) and Høyem (2019), who propose that (certain) absolutes are introduced by a (phonetically null or overt) preposition or predicational operator.…”

“…This seems undesirable, as both free and absolute adjuncts involve the same building blocks otherwise: a non-finite participle combined with arguments and adjuncts. It also seems controversial to assume that a (low) Asp projection can have nominative case features, as Helland and Pitz (2014) propose for pastparticipial absolutes, which according to them only project to AspP directly above vP (see Sect. 6.2).…”

“…Furthermore, it remains unclear what exactly the feature specification of T/Asp/Infl would look like in free and absolute participial adjuncts, respectively. While Helland and Pitz (2014) simply assume that T/Asp either has or lacks "nominative features", Ojea (2011) argues that absolute T contains a special feature [+absolute] that licenses a nominative DP. Reuland (1983), finally, suggests that absolute Infl contains an "abstract [agreement] marker" that can somehow get and assign nominative case.…”

“…Helland and Pitz (2014) also assume a CP domain to be present in French and German presentparticipial adjuncts, but provide no empirical evidence to support any structure above TP.40 CP may of course be divided into a range of functional projections followingRizzi (1997), in which case the complementiser would not be located in C, but rather in Force or Fin. As it is not crucial for the analysis presented in this paper, I will not go into detail on the structure of the CP domain here.…”

Being as big as small clauses get: the syntax of participial adjuncts in German and English

This paper presents a comparative syntactic account of participial adjuncts in German and English. While the typological literature describes German participial adjuncts as much more restricted than their English counterparts both syntactically and semantically, this paper presents empirical evidence that these differences have been exaggerated. Based on a corpus of more than 3000 participial adjuncts, it is argued that these adjuncts have a clause-like internal structure in both languages. Participial adjuncts are analysed as small clauses that can project all the way up to CP level, with a subject that is either phonetically null PRO controlled via Agree or an overt DP that is case licensed either by an element outside the participial clause or through default case. At the same time, the corpus data show that these participial constructions constitute a versatile group of adjuncts when it comes to their argument-structural properties and categorial nature. An analysis couched within the framework of Distributed Morphology is presented that can account for this diversity. This empirically based and theoretically founded account of participial adjuncts contributes to our understanding of the structural possibilities of small clauses cross-linguistically.

Kajian ini mendalami terkait upaya pelibatan institusi militer dalam mobilisasi petani untuk mencapai peningkatan produktivitas pangan melalui program Upsus Pajale. Program tersebut menjadi upaya dari Presiden Joko Widodo untuk melibatkan tentara, demi mencapai swasembada pangan pada tahun 2017. Studi ini adalah penelitian kualitatif deskriptif dengan strategi studi kasus pada pelaksanaan program Upsus Pajale di Kabupaten Sleman pada tahun 2015–2017. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara mendalam, teknik dokumentasi, dan triangulasi. Berbeda dengan studi sebelumnya yang melihat bahwa peran militer dalam program pangan disebabkan oleh faktor doktrin dan kelembagaan militer, hasil kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa peran otoritas politik dalam menerjemahkan kebijakan pangan sebagai bagian dari sektor pertahanan telah memberikan ruang bagi militer terlibat pada program pangan. Adanya Reformasi tahun 1998 yang mendorong penataan internal angkatan bersenjata tidak lantas menghilangkan peran militer dalam program pangan sebagai konsekuensi dari tafsiran otoritas politik mengenai ancaman internal pertahanan dan keamanan. Kehidupan petani kembali berada pada subordinasi militer yang menjadi alat penguasa untuk menyukseskan peningkatan produksi pertanian melalui program Upsus Pajale.

La syntaxe des constructions participiales

Syntaxe &Amp; Sémantique

Résumé Dans cette contribution, nous nous proposons de rendre compte de la syntaxe des constructions participiales passées en français et en allemand. L’étude porte sur les prédications secondaires sous forme de participiales avec ou sans sujet explicite. Nous combinons un cadre théorique minimaliste standard avec la Morphologie Distribuée d’Embick (2004a) pour rendre compte des propriétés des constructions passées dans les deux langues en question. La particularité des participes passés est leur caractère hautement défectif. Le système théorique de base est fondamentalement le même pour le français et l’allemand avec des restrictions générales concernant le type de verbes qui entre dans la construction participiale. Il y a cependant des contraintes spécifiques pour chaque langue liées au processus de cliticisation, à l’emploi de la négation et au marquage casuel qui nous permettent d’expliquer les différences entre les deux (types de) langues. Nous aboutissons à une nouvelle classification des constructions participiales distinguant les structures adjectivales (non verbales), résultatives (verbales) et événementielles (verbales). Cette nouvelle classification est corrélée à la dérivation morphosyntaxique des constructions participiales comme ajouts ouverts et fermés.
