Gradability in Natural Language: Logical and Grammatical Foundations - Oxford Studies in Semantics and Pragmatics
Burnett, Heather (Research Scientist, Research Scientist, Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle, CNRS-Universite Paris 7-Denis Diderot)
This book presents a new theory of the relationship between vagueness, context-sensitivity, gradability, and scale structure in natural language. Heather Burnett proposes a new formal reasoning system called DelTCS in which she sets out a completely new theory of gradable linguistic constructions.
