Bridging as Coercive Accommodation
نویسندگان
چکیده
[Van der Sandt, 1992] introduces [Lewis, 1979]’ notion of accommodation in Discourse Representation Theory [Kamp and Reyle, 1993] as a tool to account for gaps in the discourse. His theory of presupposition projection takes presuppositions to behave like anaphora. Anaphoric expressions normally are linked to antecedents that have previously been established in the discourse. If example (1) would appear in a context where no king of France is present – hence no antecedent is available – then Van der Sandt’s algorithm accommodates the existence of a king of France.

متن کاملIntrinsic ferroelectric coercive field
The Landau-Ginzburg theory of ferroelectricity predicts the intrinsic coercive field for polarization reversal, but the observed extrinsic coercive field is always much smaller as a result of nucleation, dynamic processes not covered by the static theory. We have realized the intrinsic coercive field for the first time, in two-dimensional Langmuir-Blodgett polymer films as thin as 1 nm. The mea...
