Voice and Ellipsis (2013, background): “…show morphologically, and as may be required to state the selectional restrictions of the passive Voice head to capture Perlmutter’s Generalization; see Legate 2003 for arguments that even unaccusatives have a v), then Voice takes as its complement the vP, which may introduce the external argument.”
Little v and parametric variation (2012, background): “A type of v introduces agents, while another one introduces experiencers (Arad 2002) Moreover, there is also a type of v that does not introduce external arguments (Legate 2003).”
Deriving the Functional Hierarchy (2014, background): “Our argumentation has not involved the classic kinds of evidence usually adduced for phase boundaries with regard to escape hatches for movement (e.g. Legate 2003), for the simple reason that the argument can be made independently of such evidence, on the basis of uncontroversial data from English.”
Being progressive is just a phase: celebrating the uniqueness of progressive aspect under a phase-based analysis (2015, background): “20Despite postulating raising to the edge of this phase, Chomsky (2001) actually assumes the clauseinternal phase in passive constructions to be a weak phase, though Legate (2003) has shown the clauseinternal phase to always be strong, even with passives and unaccusatives.”
On the Locality and Motivation of Move and Agree: An Even More Minimal Theory (2007, background): “Thus, Legate (2003) shows that successive-cyclic movement targets the edge of passive and ergative VPs, which are not phases in Chomsky’s (2000, 2001) system.”
