Splitting the Reference Time: Temporal Anaphora and Quantification in DRT
This paper presents an analysis of temporal anaphora in sentences which contain quantification over events, within the framework of Discourse Representation Theory. The analysis in (Partee, 1984) of quantified sentences, introduced by a temporal connective, gives the wrong truth-conditions when the temporal connective in the subordinate clause is before or after. This problem has been previousl...

We present an analysis of temporal anaphora in sentences which contain quantiication over events, within the framework of Discourse Representation Theory. The analysis in 12] of quan-tiied sentences, introduced by a temporal connective, gives the wrong truth-conditions when the temporal connective in the subordinate clause is before or after. This problem has been previously analyzed in 19] as ...
متن کاملA note on backward anaphora
In this paper I present four empirical observations about backward anaphora; building on Schlenker (2005), I suggest that the phenomenon should be though of in terms of a left–to–right interpretation process, in which discourse referents can be dynamically stored (by NPs) and retrieved (by pronouns) at two distinct and interacting levels of organization of the grammar: the «local» level of sema...
متن کاملDirectional PPs And Reference Frames In DRT
In this paper, I will argue that the wellknown ambiguity of directional prepositions between the intrinsic and relative readings is not lexical, but can be interpreted as a framework assignment ambiguity of the type observed in the temporal domain. A DRT semantics will then be constructed around a unified model of framework assignment which can be applied across the board to all three universal...
متن کاملExtending DRT With A Focusing Mechanism For Pronominal Anaphora And Ellipsis Resolution
Cormack (1992) proposed a framework for pronominal anaphora resolution. Her proposal integrates focusing theory (Sidner et al.) and DRT (Kamp and Reyle). We analyzed this methodology and adjusted it to the processing of Portuguese texts. The scope of the framework was widened to cover sentences containing restrictive relative clauses and subject ellipsis. Tests were conceived and applied to pro...
