Island theory and discontinuous islands in Minimalist Program
What has replaced Island Theory in MP?
How does MP deal with the Cavar & Fanselow or Fanselow & Cavar examples of discontinuous islands:
Croatian:
Ivan je ušao u bijelu kuću.
I. be enter in white house
"Ivan went into the white house."
No extraction from PP (u bijelu kuću):
* Ivan je ušao kuću u bijelu _
I be enter house in white
* Ivan je kuću ušao u bijelu _
I be house enter in white
* kuću je Ivan ušao u bijelu _
house be I enter in white
But split of PP is possible:
U bijelu je Ivan kuću ušao.
in white be I. house enter
Thanks!
