Skrócony opis: |
(tylko po angielsku) How is it possible that we understand sentences we have never heard before? This course will cover – in some formal detail – compositional semantics, i.e., the principles governing the composition of meanings of larger syntactic units (sentences, phrases) from the meanings of the constituents (phrases, words) of these units. The course is partially based on the “Semantics in Generative Grammar” textbook (Irene Heim and Angelika Kratzer) and makes use of the “Lambda Calculator” tool (http://lambdacalculator.com/). |

Literatura: |
(tylko po angielsku) The course very roughly follows the not-so-new but still very relevant textbook “Semantics in Generative Grammar” by Irene Heim and Angelika Kratzer. While the textbook was first published (by Blackwell) in 1998, it is still treated as lingua franca in formal semantics – familiarity with it is often assumed in current semantic publications. The course usually covers the first 6–7 chapters of the textbook, but it also includes material outside of the textbook; moreover, unlike in the textbook, in the course we will to a large extent rely on meaning representations in the language of predicate logic. |
