She investigates how focus affects the pragmatics and truth conditions of a sentence by rearranging its quantificational structure.Adopting a neo-Davidsonian stance, Herburger claims that various pragmatic and truth-conditional effects of focus sustain a uniform explanation if focus is viewed as imposing structure on otherwise unrestricted quantification. Phenomena discussed include "free" focus, the interaction between focus and negation, the quantificational structure of adverbs of quantification, the semantics of only and even, and the differences between weak and strong determiners.One of Herburger's aims is to show that a simple semantics, without reliance on such notions as semantic presupposition, can account for the truth-conditional and pragmatic effects of focus. The book will be of interest to anyone exploring the syntax-semantics interface and current theories of quantification.Linguistic Inquiry Monograph No. 36 001387717 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001387717 650_0 $$aFocus (Linguistics) 001387717 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general$$xQuantifiers. 001387717 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general$$xDeterminers. 001387717 650_0 $$aSemantics. 001387717 650_0 $$aPragmatics. 001387717 653__ $$aLINGUISTICS & LANGUAGE/General 001387717 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001387717 852__ $$bebk 001387717 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/7201.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001387717 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001387717 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1387717$$pGLOBAL_SET 001387717 980__ $$aBIB 001387717 980__ $$aEBOOK 001387717 982__ $$aEbook 001387717 983__ $$aOnline
