영문 초록

This paper attempts to analyze the relationship between anaphor and its antecedent by the feature checking theory. In the ambiguous anaphoric constructions, the feature checking theory cannot properly capture the antecedents because there exist no two feature checking processes in the Minimalist Program. To solve this problem, I propose Feature Transmission Hypothesis as an alternative. That is, the ambiguous anaphor moves to AGRo, then AGRo checks the anaphor’s feature. After this process, AGRs attracts AGRo and features of AGRo are transmitted to AGRs. Finally, AGRo lets AGRs trigger the feature checking. This hypothesis is also examined to several kinds of structures such as honorific construction, reciprocal anaphoric construction, multiple anaphoric construction, etc.
