Indexicals as Token-Reflexives
Reichenbachian approaches to indexicality contend that indexicals are "token-reflexives": semantic rules associated with any given indexical-type determine the truth-conditional import of properly produced tokens of that type relative to certain relational properties of those tokens. Such a view may be understood as sharing the main tenets of Kaplan's well-known theory regarding content, or tru...
متن کاملReflexives and TAG Semantics
Nesson and Shieber (2006) argue that the synchronous TAG (STAG) formalism provides an empirically adequate, yet formally restrictive solution to the problem of associating semantic interpretations with TAG derivations. In this paper, I further explore this approach, focusing on the semantics of reflexives. I find that STAG indeed permits a simple analysis of core cases of reflexives. This analy...
متن کاملDependency of Long-Distance Reflexives
This paper aims to account for dependency of long-distance anaphors within the derivational approach. Dependency between the antecedent and the anaphor is determined by the universal operations, Merge, Move and Agree. Following Hornstein (2001) and Zwart (2002), anaphors in Korean, Chinese, and Japanese are argued to merge with antecedents to obtain anaphoricity. How such a merged complex parti...
متن کاملOptimal Reflexivity in Dutch
Binding principles applied to Dutch reflexives are supplemented with optimality considerations and a general principle of linguistic economy to account for differences in reflexivization strategies of Dutch and English. Dutch SE-reflexives are optimally encoded coreference in contrast to the English ordinary bound pronouns they are translated to. Burzio's stated general dispreference for SE-ref...
متن کاملContexts, Biases, and Reflexivity
In a recent, welcome contribution, Predelli (2013) presents a fruitful and powerful framework on how truth-conditional semantics can deal with non-truth-conditional meaning. One of the gifts of Predelli’s contribution is that it presents a unifying theory dealing with seemingly various phenomena often relegated to the pragmatics dustbin. Thus, nicknames, slurs, answering machines/post-its, voca...
