This paper is an attempt to explore double object constructions (DOC, henceforth) in English within the framework of Minimalist Theory. Chomsky(1981) analyzed DOCs with the concept of an inherent case, but his theory still remains to be problematic. Larson(1988), on the other hand, approached DOCs by means of VP-shell structure, Dative Shift, and V-Raising. However, his analysis is not without problems. As an alternative, I propose an analysis based on Chomsky’s(1992) theory of Spec-Head Agreement in assigning cases and Pesetsky’s(1992) notion of zero preposition(φ).
