MRG 2nd dose

OnEdge (_Agian_)

Well, finally it’s going to start, at least Rose, Khuong, Sara and Chandan (?) are going to start from Ch1 of the Minimalist Program book.

I think the first session slotted for Monday 22nd May.

I will try to come in as many sessions as possible but mostly you guys should do it regularly.

It’s not the case that you’ll find in it very useful things for your dissertations in the book, but this is definitely a good way to get into the subject and develop a “feel” for the field. And Chap 1 is a good way to get into some of the topics discussed there (binding theory, section 1.4.2, Case theory etc.) Remember that this chapter was co-written with Howard Lasnik and it’s only the beggining of the idea of minimalism (which really flowers fully in chap 4). Also note that the levels of representations D-str, S-str etc are still retained in this chapter.

Let me know the final date/time. Venue is going to be my room.
see ya
