Quantifier Scope

This collection of papers aims at determining the nature and derivation of quantifier scope (QS), and specifically, (i) the locus of interpretation of quantificational dependencies; (ii) the differences between child and adult grammar with respect to scope interpretation; (iii) whether configurational approaches of multi-factor approaches to QS have a bigger explanatory power; (iv) whether scopal heads are independent lexical items generating specific quantificational projections or whether they are "projections" of features inherent in the nominal.
