C.-T. James Huang received his PhD from MIT in 1982 and is Professor of Linguistics at Harvard University. Prior to that he taught at the University of California (Irvine), Cornell University, University of Hawai'i, and National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan. A specialist in syntactic theory, his primary research interests are natural language syntax and the relationship between syntax and semantics, with particular reference to cross-linguistic differences and theories for such variations. His recent publications include “Chinese passives in comparative perspective,” in Tsing Hua Studies; (with Luther Liu) “Reflexivity, Logophoricity and Ziji at the Interface,” in Syntax and Semantics; and (with Masao Ochi) “Syntax of the Hell: Two Types of Dependencies,” in NELS 34. He is Founding Editor of the Journal of East Asian Linguistics. In addition to serving as Associate Director of the Institute, he has taught at four previous LSA summer schools (1986, 1991, 1997, and 2003).
