MODERN PERSPECTIVES IN TYPE-THEORETICAL SEMANTI...

This book is a collective volume that reports the state of the art in the applications of type
theory to linguistic semantics. The volume fills a 20 year gap from the last published book on
the issue and aspires to bring researchers closer to cutting edge alternatives in formal
semantics research. It consists of unpublished work by some key researchers on various issues
related to the type theoretical study of formal semantics and further exemplifies the
advantages of using modern type theoretical approaches to linguistic semantics. Themes that are
covered include modern developments of type theories in formal semantics  foundational issues
in linguistic semantics like anaphora  modality and plurals  innovational interdisciplinary
research like the introduction of probability theory to type theories as well as computational
implementations of type theoretical approaches. This volume will be of great interest to formal
semanticists that are looking for alternative ways to study linguistic semantics  but will also
be of interest to theoretical computer scientists and mathematicians that are interested in the
applications of type theory.
