Bipartite Negation and the Fine Structure of the Negative Phrase

Arthur James Bell holds his PhD in Linguistics from Cornell University, where he studied under Professors Chris Collins, John Whitman, Carol Rosen, Wayne Harbert, and John Bowers. He is a Foreign Service Officer with the U. S. Department of State and has served at posts in Africa and the Middle East. Adopting a Chomskyan framework, Bipartite Negation proposes a syntactic analysis of a negation strategy found in numerous languages, heretofore unaddressed by the theory.
