The contributions collected in this voume address central topics in
theoretical and computational linguistics, such as quantification,
types of context dependence and aspects concerning the
formalisation of major grammatical frameworks, among others GB, DRT
and HPSG. All contributions have in common a strong preference for
logic as the major tool of analysis. The first main issue concerns
the combination of DRT and HPSG styles of analysis into a single
system for natural language processing. The second central issue
concerns the logical and automata - theoretical foundations of
descriptive formalisms presently in the focus of attention, for
instance minimalism. A third issue is the significance of context
and locality within an algorithmic notion of meaning. The last
topic addressed concerns subclasses of empirically highly
significant quantificational devices like proportionality
quantifiers and quantifiers which give rise to sound and complete
logics for non-trivial fragments of English. The volume will be of
great benefit for theoretical and computational linguists, computer
scientists, philosophers, and logicians.
