Abstract:

Read this book to get a deeper understanding of a wide range of semantics
research on complex sentences and meaning in discourse. These in-depth
articles from leading names in their fields cover the core concepts of
sentential semantics such as tense, modality, conditionality, propositional
attitudes, scope, negation, and coordination. The highly cited material,
covers questions, imperatives, copular clauses, and existential sentences. It
also includes essential research on sentence types, and explains central
concepts in the theory of information structure and discourse structure, such
as topics, cohesion and coherence, accessibility and discourse particles.
