Principle C of Binding Theory and Cataphoric Reference, why these notions are against each other?












0















Principle C of Binding Theory stated that 'referential expression' can not be c-commanded, even across clause boundaries.
While cataphoric reference refers to a reference which occurs before its antecedent.
These two notions are obviously against each other.



Is Binding Theory, in this case, not valid anymore due to the time being?
Or there are some kinds of exception in the Binding Theory?
Any comments or answers will be appreciated...

    Why do you say "These two notions are obviously against each other"? C-command makes no reference to left-right order, does it?
