About This Book

Doris Penka delivers a unified analysis of the semantics and syntax of negative indefinites - as in the expressions nobody nothing, never and nowhere - and their counterparts in other languages. Contrary to standard assumptions, the author argues that these expressions are not inherently negative and are only licensed by a covert negation.
