"And" always means "&," across the varied constructions in which it is tokened in natural language. Schein examines the constructions that challenge his thesis, and shows that the objections disappear when these constructions are translated into Eventish, a neo-Davidsonian event semantics, and, enlarged with Cinerama Semantics, a vocabulary for spatial orientation and navigation. Besides rescuing "and" from ambiguity, Eventish and Cinerama Semantics solve general puzzles of grammar and meaning unrelated to conjunction, revealing the book's central thesis in the process: aspects of meaning mistakenly attributed to "and" are discovered to reflect neighboring structures previously unseen and unacknowledged. 00Schein argues that Eventish and Cinerama Semantics offer a fundamental revision to clause structure and what aspects of meaning are represented therein. Eventish is distinguished by four features: supermonadicity, which enlarges verbal decomposition so that every argument relates to its own event; descriptive event anaphora, which replaces simple event variables with silent descriptive pronouns; adverbialization, which interposes adverbials derived from the descriptive content of every DP; and AdrPs, which replace all NPs with Address Phrases that locate what nominals denote within scenes or frames of reference. 0. 001386063 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386063 650_0 $$aAnd (The English word) 001386063 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$xConjunctions. 001386063 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general$$xConjunctions. 001386063 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general$$xCoordinate constructions. 001386063 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general$$xSentences. 001386063 650_0 $$aGenerative grammar. 001386063 653_0 $$aLINGUISTICS & LANGUAGE/General 001386063 653__ $$aLINGUISTICS & LANGUAGE/General 001386063 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386063 852__ $$bebk 001386063 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/10488.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386063 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386063 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386063$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386063 980__ $$aBIB 001386063 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386063 982__ $$aEbook 001386063 983__ $$aOnline
