The aim of this book is to clarify what is meant by this principle, to show that its traditional justification is insufficient, and to discuss some of the problems that have to be addressed before a new attempt can be made to justify it. 410 0$aStudies in philosophy (New York, N.Y.) 606 $aSemantics 606 $aCompositionality (Linguistics) 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aCompositionality (Linguistics) 676 $a401/.41 700 $aSzabo$b Zoltan Gendler.$0915503 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791095803321 996 $aProblems of compositionality$93778633 997 $aUNINA
