`dislocated:obj`: dislocated object

Through different subtypes of dislocated we more precisely identify which argument has been dislocated in the sentence and how it is realized in this position (nominally or clausally). This information is not directly retrievable otherwise from “basic” dependencies, since the dislocated relation always depends on the local head. It is also kept distinct from the use of dislocated for topicalisations and similar phenomena, which are not directly related to an argument expressed in the matrix clause.

In the translation of the example, the bold passage corresponds to the dislocated element, and the underlined passage to the dislocating one.

‘That mankind was then happy in the calm of universal peace is attested by all historians and by famous poets; even the chronicler of Christ’s gentleness deigned to bear witness to it.’ (De Monarchia, UDante)

The orphan relations actually correspond to an obj; in this co-ordination, all conjuncts but the last one are elliptical of dignatus est testari ‘[has] deigned to bear witness to’.

Note: in general, the dislocated element does not need to be of the same form as the corresponding argument appearing in the matrix clause, and there can be alternation between clausal and nominal realisations. The subtype of dislocated depends on the type of the dislocated element, not on that of the argument in the matrix clause.
