Past/passive participles and locality of attachment

In this short chapter I outline some properties of the structure “I’m done writing Chapter 3”, which does not appear to have been formally analysed before. Concentrating on the -en/-ed participle and the structure’s semantics, I suggest that this is a kind of stative passive, of a kind not previously known. I offer a syntactic analysis, in which an aspectual projection can stativize the eventive syntax it hierarchically embeds.
