Abstract
Whether there are limits on the amount of morphological information that the grammar can access has been the topic of much debate. In early cyclic approaches to phonology (Chomsky, Halle & Lukoff 1956, Chomsky & Halle 1968), the erasure of morphological boundaries at the end of cycles (Bracket Erasure) was simply a mechanism that drove the cyclic derivation. In The Sound Pattern of English (SPE), for example, Chomsky & Halle (1968) derived cyclic phonology in the following way
