A group of authors containing both leading authorities and young
researchers addresses a number of issues of contrastiveness,
polarity items and exhaustivity, quantificational expressions and
the implicatures they generate, and the interaction between
semantic operators and speech acts. The 19 contributions provide
insights on the interplay between semantics and pragmatics. The
volume's reach is cross-linguistic and takes an unorthodox
multi-paradigm approach. Languages studied range from European
languages including Hungarian and Russian to East Asian languages
such as Japanese and Korean, with rich data on focus and discourse
particles. This volume contributes to a major area of research in
linguistics of the last decade, and provides novel,
state-of-the-art views on some of the central topics in linguistic
research, and will appeal to an audience of graduate and advanced
undergraduate researchers in linguistics, philosophy of language
and computational linguistics.
