WiSe24/25: Constraint-based Semantics 2
Course description
This course presupposes a background in formal semantics compatible with the material discussed in Semantics 1 and similar courses. The first-order based logical framework of the introductory course to semantics will be developed into a higher order logic, which enables us to formulate a theory of quantification and sentence embedding in Lexical Resource Semantics (LRS).
Prerequisites
The course requires familiarity with the basics of formal semantics, as acquired in the course “Semantics 1” taught at the IEAS.
