It is the purpose of the present paper to highlight the figure of Eubulides, a relatively unknown Greek philosopher who lived ±405–330 BC and taught at Megara, not far from Athens.

The Megarian school of philosophy was on...

Abstract Connectives such as Tonk have posed a significant challenge to the inferentialist. It has been recently argued (Button 2016; Button and Walsh 2018) that classical semanticist faces an analogous problem due definability of “nasty connectives” under non-standard interpretations propositional vocabulary. In this paper, we defend from alleged problem.

Disquotational accounts of tmth are cornmonly snbject to a number of objections.

This communication describes the theoretical and practical tools that permit the automatic construction of a verbal lexicon in view of a didactic utilisation by linguists and an automatic treatment of written texts. Firstly we present the taken theoretical choices for the representation of the verbal polysemy in view of a practical utilisation; and secondly we present some elements of a semi-au...

Kamp (1975) defines a privative adjective as one for which, given adjective A and noun N, the claim 'No AN is a N' is necessarily true.For example, 'fake' is a privative because 'No fake gun is a gun,' is true by definition. In order to explain how 'fake' acts as a modifier, the semanticist's job has been to provide a mechanism for specifying the similarities and differences between real and fa...
