Synopsis

A Fusion Hypothesis for Dual to Constructions in English is a high-novelty theoretical monograph with a clear empirical target and a broader architectural ambition. Its immediate contribution is a new analysis of English pseudo-passive like to-constructions. Its larger contribution is a theory of operator-domain compression: the idea that grammars can collapse adjacent functional operators into a single surface exponent when recoverability, anchoring, and homophony permit it. The book is important because it forces a revision of three assumptions: that passive is a reliable objecthood test, that prepositional passive contrasts are reducible to V–P reanalysis, and that homophony is merely a surface accident. Instead, it treats homophony as a structural resource, recoverability as a licensing condition, and objecthood as operator-relative. The result is a manuscript with real field-shifting potential: not because it denies previous syntax, but because it changes the explanatory unit from constituent position to operator-domain geometry.
