Ellipsis: Functional Heads, Licensing, and Identification
Lobeck, Anne (Associate Professor of English, Associate Professor of English, Western Washington University)
Lobeck elaborates a theory of ellipsis which brings the phenomenon under the aegis of very general and universal principles. She argues that the Empty Category Principle (ECP) constrain the distribution of ellipsis just as it constrains the distributions of traces and null pronouns, which has implications not only for ellipsis but for the study of empty categories as well.
