Interpreted Languages and Compositionality (Studies in Linguistics and Philosophy)

Interpreted Languages and Compositionality (Studies in Linguistics and Philosophy)

by Marcus Kracht (Author)

Synopsis

Since the rise of formal semantics in the 1970s, the issue of `compositionality' has gained traction in linguistics. This book argues that there exist non-compositional languages. Moreover, syntactic structure can be motivated from the requirement of providing a compositional grammar.
