Situation Theory grew out of attempts by Jon Barwise in the late
1970s to provide a semantics for 'naked-infinitive' perceptual
reports such as 'Claire saw Jon run'. Barwise's intuition was that
Claire didn't just see Jon, an individual, but Jon doing something,
a situation. Situations are individuals having properties and
standing in relations. A theory of situations would allow us to
study and compare various types of situations or situation-like
entitles, such as facts, events, and scenes. One of the central
themes of situation theory of meaning and reference should be set
within a general theory of information, one moreover that is rich
enough to do justice to perception, communication, and thought. By
now many people have contributed by the need to give a rigorous
mathematical account of the principles of information that
underwrite the theory.
