Two well-known phenomena in the area of pronoun binding are considered: Indirect binding of pronouns by indefinite NPs ("donkey sentences") and surface-syntactic constraints on binding ("weak cross-over"). A common treatment is proposed, and general consequences for the relation between syntactic and semantic processing are discussed. It is argued that syntactic and semantic analysis must interact in a complex way, rather than in a simple sequential or strict rule-to-rule fashion.
