The Romance Inter-Views are short, multiple Q&A pairs that address key issues,
definitions and ideas regarding Romance linguistics. Prominent exponents of different approaches to the study of Romance linguistics are asked to answer some general questions from their viewpoint. The answers are then assembled so that readers can get a comparative picture of what’s going on in the field.
For the first Inter-Views we selected (morpho-)syntactic research, and asked 8
syntacticians, representing four approaches to the study of Romance linguistics, to answer our questions. The approaches we selected are Cartography, Distributed
Morphology, Minimalism, and Nanosyntax. The scholars we interviewed are listed
hereafter.
For Cartography: Luigi Rizzi and Norma Schifano
For Distributed Morphology: Karlos Arregi and Andrés Saab
For Minimalism: Grant Armstrong and Caterina Donati
For Nanosyntax: Karen De Clercq and Antonio Fábregas
