The papers in this volume address central issues in the study of Plurality and Quantification from three different perspectives: - Algebraic approaches to Plurals and Quantification - Distributivity and Collectivity: Theoretical Foundations - Distributivity and Collectivity: Empirical Investigations Algebraic approaches to the semantics of natural languages were in- dependently introduced for the study of generalized quantification, pred- ication, intensionality, mass terms and plurality. The most prominent modern advocate for an algebraic theory of plurality (and mass terms) is certainly...

The Proper Treatment of Events offers a novel approach to the semantics of tense and aspect motivated by cognitive considerations.
The contributions collected in this voume address central topics in theoretical and computational linguistics, such as quantification, types of context dependence and aspects concerning the formalisation of major grammatical frameworks, among others GB, DRT and HPSG.
All contributions have in common a strong preference for logic as the major tool of analysis. The first main issue concerns the combination of DRT and HPSG styles of analysis into a single system for natural language processing. The second central issue concerns the logical and automata - theoretical foundations of...

Die vorliegende Monographie bietet eine systematische, gut verständliche Einführung in die neuesten Entwicklungen der strukturellen Beschreibungsmittel. Die Entwicklung der modernen Linguistik in Richtung einer kognitiven Wissenschaft hat zu einer engen interdisziplinären Verflechtung mit den Bereichen der Psychologie, Sprachphilosophie, künstlichen Intelligenz und Informatik geführt. Die Kenntnis der strukturellen Eigenschaften natürlicher Sprachen hat daher auch in diesen Bereichen zunehmende Relevanz erlangt.
