Richard Stanley Kayne (born 1944) is an American linguist and professor at New York University.
Life and career
Kayne was born in 1944.[1] After receiving a B.A. in mathematics from Columbia University in 1964, he studied linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, receiving his Ph.D. in 1969. He then taught at the University of Paris VIII (1969–1986),[2] MIT (1986–1988) and the City University of New York (1988–1997), becoming Professor at New York University in 1997.[3]
He has made prominent contributions to the study of the syntax of English and the Romance languages, such as French or Italian,[4] [5] [6] within the framework of transformational grammar.[7] His theory of Antisymmetry[8] has become part of the canon of the Minimalist syntax literature.
