다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper aims at exploring the possibilities of syntactic explanation for resumptive pronouns occurring in English relative clauses. The 'spelt- out trace' approach to resumptive pronouns, in which they are considered to be Spell-Outs of illicit traces and thus to save violations of syntactic conditions, is claimed to have some theory-internal problems. Instead, we assume the 'base-generation approach' to resumptive pronouns on the hypothesis that a CRP (Covert Resumptive Pronoun) is base-generated and converted to an ORP (Overt Resumptive Pronoun) following the 'visibility condition of resumptive pronoun[s]' proposed by Gu (2001).
However, the required qualification of the licensor, which needs to be defined by parametric variation, plays an important role either in converting the CRP to ORP, or in preventing the CRP from converting to an ORP. But Gu's (2001) 'visibility condition of resumptive pronoun[s]' is found not to be sufficient enough to account for some structures in English. Thus, along with parametric variation of licensors, his 'visibility condition of resumptive pronouns' can be revised to account for incorrectly predicted grammaticality of some English sentences, including resumptive pronouns in relative clauses.
