Special Lectures in Proseminar in Semantics

Angelika Kratzer writes:

You are all cordially invited to two special lectures of this semester's proseminar in semantics on quantification around the world.

September 6 (tomorrow!)

Barbara Partee
The history of formal semantics (with particular attention to debates about and treatments of quantification).

September 27

Luis Alonso-Ovalle (McGill) & Paula Menéndez-Benito (Göttingen)
Spanish "algunos" and dependent plurality.

 

Time: 2:30 PM
Place: the regular meeting place for the seminar is 136, Hasbrouck Laboratory. But since we are expecting a bigger crowd for the special events, we requested Herter 207 for those. Since the request has not yet been confirmed, I will send around another message on Tuesday morning.
