Book Chapter
Notional versus Syntactic Views of Imposters
2012
Overview
There are two competing views to explain imposters: the notional view and the syntactic view. According to the notional view, imposters are just regular third person determiner phrases (DPs) as far as their syntax is concerned. The syntactic view considers imposters a class of DPs with a distinctive syntax that accounts for their non-third person denotations. More precisely, imposters have first or second person denotations because their grammatical structure incorporates only first or second person forms. Imposters incorporate exactly the kind of DPs that have such denotations in non-imposter cases, that is, first or second person pronominals.
