Presupposition and implicature in compositional semantics
Presupposition and implicature in compositional semantics[electronic resource] /edited byUli Sauerland and Penka Stateva. - Basingstoke ;Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - ix, 285 p. :ill. - Palgrave studies in pragmatics, language, and cognition.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Quantifier dependent readings of anaphoric presuppositions / Sigrid Beck -- Licensing 'or' / Regine Eckardt -- Free choice and the theory of scalar implicatures / Danny Fox -- Partial variablesand specificity / Gerhard Jèager -- Negated antonyms : creating and filling the gap / Manfred Krifka-- A pragmatic constraint on adverbial quantification / Orin Percus -- Transparency : an incremental theory of presupposition projection / Philippe Schlenker -- Aspects of the pragmatics of plural morphology : on higher-order implicatures / Benjamin Spector.

All humans can interpret sentences of their native language quickly and without effort. Working from the perspective of generative grammar,this volume investigates three mental mechanisms that are widely assumed to underlie this ability: compositional semantics, implicature computation and presupposition computation. For all three mechanisms, formalmodels have been advanced recently that are accurate for many cases. There is some consensus in the field, however, that further progress requires stronger interconnections between these results. This collection brings together experts from semantics and pragmatics who push this agenda forward. From this perspective, the contributors develop new insights into important empirical phenomena; for example, individual level predicates, free choice effects, presupposition accommodation, exhaustivity effects, specificity. With contributions bymany leading researchersin the field, this book will be a useful source for both researchers and students interested in sentence interpretation and language use.
