Abstract

This paper explores some of the connections between minimalist grammars and categorial grammars in the tradition of the Lambek calculus and its various extensions. It provides a new graphical perspective on the lexical items of both minimalist and categorial grammars and uses this perspective to suggest a reconciliation between two different ways of embedding minimalist grammars into categorial grammars, while keeping the good properties of both.
