.... : 15 5 Situation Semantics as Natural Language Semantics 15 6 Concluding Remarks 17 1 Introduction Situation theory is an attempt to develop a mathematical theory of meaning which will clarify and resolve some tough problems in the study of language, information, logic, philosophy, and the mind [10]. It was first formulated in detail by Jon Barwise and John Perry in 1983 [11] and has matured over the last decade [24] Various versions of the theory have been applied to a number of linguistic issues, resulting in what is commonly known as situation semantics [7, 8, 9, 23, 29, 31, 33, 48] The ....
....Claire had 3 across town. Thus, context is, in general, taken not to be a single situation, but a constellation of related situations. The assumption that meaning of a larger linguistic unit is a function of the meanings of its individual parts is called the principle of compositionality [10]. It can be considered as a reflection of the similar principle in logic [5, 17] to the semantics of natural languages. In logic, the truth value of a well formed formula is determined by the truth value of its constituent parts. an utterance, etc. which play a role in interpreting an utterance ....

Chapter 1 Introduction Situation theory is a principled programme to develop a mathematical theory of meaning which aims to clarify and resolve some tough problems in the study of language, information, logic, and philosophy [7]. It was introduced by Jon Barwise and John Perry and stimulated great interest [8] The theory matured within the last ten years or so [5, 14, 15, 36, 52, 53] and various versions of it have been applied to a number of linguistic issues [17] resulting in what is commonly known as situation ....

....subjective intensions. Thus, the position that has been sketched in this paper can be characterized as subjective intensionalism. We regard concepts as subjective intensions of predicates, i.e. individually formed descriptions of classes of objects. Moreover, we agree with Barwise and Etchemendy [BE89] (cf. their theory of situation semantics) in that predicates should be treated as primitive symbols, and not defined in terms of the set of objects they designate. To sum up, we can express the connections between theories of meaning and theories of universals as follows: extensional theories of ....

Once we accept the reductive account, the problem of the logical constants appears to hold the key to the di#erence be 26 For a more extensive discussion of ways in which model theoretic semantics illuminates the semantics of a language, see Barwise and Etchemendy [2] and Etchemendy [11] 34 tween genuinely valid inference and inference that obviously is not. With stakes this high, this becomes a philosophical issue that demands attention. Wittgenstein is well known for his claim that the problems of philosophy arise out of fundamental confusions, and that ....
