This volume collects leading-edge work on the semantics and pragmatics of natural language, including contributions from Eve Clark, Paul Kiparsky, Stanley Peters, Dag Westerstahl and Arnold M. Zwicky. The research covers a number of languages - English, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean and Quechua - and phenomena, including adverbial modification, classifiers, constructional meaning, control phenomena, evidentiality, events semantics, focus, presupposition, and quantification. This is a valuable volume for anyone interested in the latest developments in the study of meaning.
The past twenty years have witnessed extensive collaborative
research between computer scientists, logicians, linguists,
philosophers, and psychologists. These interdisciplinary studies
stem from the realization that researchers drawn from all fields
are studying the same problem. Specifically, a common concern
amongst researchers today is how logic sheds light on the nature of
information. Ancient questions concerning how humans communicate,
reason and decide, and modern questions about how computers should
communicate, reason and decide are of prime interest to researchers
in various disciplines.
