The paper is divided as follows. In section 2 we pose various questions that arise when attempting to rationalize islands. We begin to address some of these questions in section 3, where the basic LCA line is presented. In sections 4 and 5 we explore a variety of consequences that this approach has for conditions of island rep when ellipsis is involved or when resumption is instead, respective. In section 6, finally, we extend the same dynamic logic to the LF component, which leads us to asking whether recalcitrant islands can be accounted for this way. A few conclusions ensue in section 7.
