This dissertation investigates the interface between syntax and semantics with respect to Japanese sentences in which some constituent is obligatorily focused. Following Higgins, I use the term "specificational sentence" to refer to this type of sentence. There are two types of specificational sentences in Japanese: one contains a topic NP and the other does not. It is argued that they are uniformly represented at LF and that the nominalized predicate is raised covertly to the topic position in a non-topicalized specificational sentence.

The distribution of the obligatory focus phenomenon is sensitive to predicate types and the referential hierarchy involving the subject and the predicate. In order to explain why such constraints exists, this dissertation proposes two types of predication structures, namely individual-level and stage-level predication structures, drawing on Bowers' work on predication. An individual-level predication structure involves PrP (predication phrase), whereas a stage-level predication structure does not. I show that a stage-level predication structure is compatible with both a thetic judgment and a categorical judgment in the sense of Kuroda, whereas an individual-level predication structure only yields a categorical judgment. I argue that a base sentence with an individual-level structure must contain an overt or covert topic phrase and that this is the source of the obligatory focus phenomenon.

This proposal accounts for the fact that a wh-question in Japanese is ruled out if it has no topic phrase and the wh-phrase is not in its subject position. I contend that a wh-question is ruled out when a topic phrase contains an unbound wh-phrase at LF because no presupposition is defined for the topic phrase. I also show why the Multiple Subject Construction occurs only in the individual-level predication structure. Lastly, I demonstrate that our semantic proposal accounts for so-called syntactic connectedness effects in specificational sentences.
