This book is a collection of linguistic and philosophical papers
dealing with the semantic problems of determiners. The language
under investigation is mostly English, although a few papers deal
with French and German, and, to a lesser extent, with Dutch,
Polish, Russian and Hebrew. The majority of the contributions focus
on the semantics of the definite and indefinite articles, leading
into discussions of anaphoricness, specificness, opacity and
transparency, referentiality and attributiveness and genericness.
The relation of the determiners to other parts of grammar, in
particular relativisation and predication, is also investigated.
Some attention is also given to quantifiers. In the spirit of
pluralism, there is no single paradigm unifying all the papers,
rather, the volume reflects elements of the Extended Standard
Theory, Generative Semantics, Montague Grammar, (Gricean)
Pragmatics and Speech Act Theory.
