The Polarity Items Bibliography

Introductory Remarks

This bibliography is intended to collect mainly scientific publications that are primarily concerned with Polarity Items. At the moment, the bibliography is clearly biased towards publications on German, English and Dutch. We would be very grateful for references to literature on other languages.

This page is work in progress. It is part of a research project, which means that we can only guarantee its maintenance for the term of the project (i.e. until December 2008).

We are aware of the incompleteness of the bibliography. Therefore, we are grateful for all comments and references to other work related to PIs. Please contact Frank Richter.
