Introduction, in reference to Chomsky 1965
Although the chapter has not been written in that way so far, it seems worthwhile to try to write the introductory chapter of my book making reference to chapter one of Chomsky's Aspects. Much of Chomsky 1965: chap. 1, especially, the discussion in sections 1-4, is directly related to what is addressed in my book. Introductory remarks, if successfully written, will make it clear that the work presented in my book is a direct continuation of Chomsky 1965, at least in terms of the methodological concerns expressed there. It will also be useful, I think, to clarify how the shift from the Aspects model (and more in general the model that has Phrase Structure Rules) to the model with Merge affects the methodological discussion in Chomsky 1965: chap. 1 in terms of what must have been intended and how it is actually expressed there. The issue is addressed briefly in A. Ueyama's forthcoming paper in the Proceedings of the JK Conference last year, which can be downloaded in the "Works by Ayumi Ueyama" page.
