All humans can interpret sentences of their native language quickly
and without effort. Working from the perspective of generative
grammar, the contributors investigate three mental mechanisms,
widely assumed to underlie this ability: compositional semantics,
implicature computation and presupposition computation. This volume
brings together experts from semantics and pragmatics to bring
forward the study of interconnections between these three
mechanisms. The contributions develop new insights into important
empirical phenomena; for example, approximation, free choice,
accommodation, and exhaustivity effects.
