Hirschbuhler, P. (1985). The Syntax and Semantics of Wh-Constructions. London: Routledge, https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315513539

This title, first published in 1985, provides a detailed analysis of aspects of the semantics and the syntax of some wh-constructions. The first part of the book deals with the semantics of questions, whilst the other part discusses the syntax of que and quoi (what) in questions in French and the syntax of free relatives in French and other languages. This title will be of interest to students of language and linguistics.
