Predicative relatives: tropes or manners?

In this talk I take a close look at Predicative Relative Clauses, which have been classified as "maximizing relatives" by Grosu and Landman, alongside free and amount relatives. I will propose a syntactic analysis based on the need for these structures to reconstruct, distinguish between expressive and non-expressive cases, and compare the latter to relatives with Special Quantifiers (SQ).
