Research into questions and answers addresses old and raises new and important questions about the semantics / pragmatics interface and about the dynamics of interpretation. This book brings together current work on the topic as it has been developed in Amsterdam, and congenial academic sites, over the past 15 years. Amsterdam is one of the breeding grounds for the formal study of logic and language, for dynamic semantics, and for the study of questions and answers. It covers the major issues of pragmatic/semantic investigation, including logical relations, context dependence, information structure, and more. It illustrates how semantic/pragmatic stance can be used for problems in other areas of linguistic theorising. 410 0$aCurrent research in the semantics/pragmatics interface ;$vv. 17. 606 $aSemantics (Philosophy) 606 $aPhilosophy 615 0$aSemantics (Philosophy) 615 0$aPhilosophy. 676 $a121.68 701 $aAloni$b Maria$01528725 701 $aButler$b Alastair$f1975-$01528726 701 $aDekker$b Paul$01528727 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784544903321 996 $aQuestions in dynamic semantics$93772564 997 $aUNINA
