Co-reference and Modality
Sixth Symposium on Logic and Language
 3-6 September 1996

Call for Papers

_________________________________________________________________

The Department of Logic of the University Eotvos Lorand Research and
the Institute for Linguistics of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
organizes the sixth Symposium on Logic and Language this fall. This
series of symposia conceived in the Motagovean trend of formal
semantics, and in the course of the years it covered a variety of
topics. The aim of the symposium is to bring together researchers from
fields such as linguistics, philosophy of language, and logic.

The chosen theme for this year is co-reference and modality, i.e. the
 interaction between (epistemic) modalities such as may, might,
possibly, necessarily, presumably, etc. and the broadly understood
anaphoric phenomena in natural language discourse.
