Scope matters

Donka Farkas

pp. 79-108

Abstract

This paper is concerned with semantic reflexes of scope. Accordingly, an expression a will be said to be in the scope of an expression ß iff the interpretation of a is affected by the semantic contribution of ß. In what follows I will focus on cases where both expressions are DPs, though examples where α is a predicate, a modal or an adverb of quantification will also figure in the discussion.
