Research Abstract
In this research, we investigated the syntactic mechanism of focusing and various grammatical phenomena related to it within the framework of the latest theories of the generative grammar (‘cartography’, ‘phase’, and ‘labeling’). We explored how focusing relates to the edge of the phase and analyzed the structure and the mechanism empirically, contributing to the elucidation of the phenomena and the development of the optimal grammatical theory. It was also shown that differences between Japanese and English, such as the scope of negation, can be derived from the difference in the function of focusing.
