1 CG 112 Lexical Semantics Sem. I, 2007 Instructor: P. Jacobson Metcalf Research 234 Ext Office Hours (subject to change): Mon.. 1-2, Thurs. 1-2 Course Packet: available at Allegra Copy. Papers which are available on line are (generally) not included in the packet to (hopefully) keep the cost down; the url is provided below in the syllabus for those. Course Requirements: (1) It is impossible to learn the material in this class without regular attendance; there is no textbook, and so everything will be put together by class lectures and discussions. Obvious amounts of non-attendance will be factored into the final grade. (2) You are expected to keep up with the assigned reading. I am aware that some of it is quite technical and might be rather daunting especially if you have had only CG 41. Don t worry about this fact: I realize that the backgrunds in the class are diverse and do not expect people to be able to immediately understand the more technical parts of the reading. I ll be giving pointers as to how to approach the various readings. (3) There will be three written assignments; these will be (essay-type) questions to answer to assimilate the readings and in-class disucssions and to get you to think further about the relevant issues. You'll have a week for each; tentative due dates are as follows: Assignment 1 - Oct. 9 Assignment 2 - Nov. 8 Assignment 3 - Dec. 4 (4) A final "project". For this project, my expectations will vary according to what I know are the very different backgrounds of the people in the class. (Hence, linguistics graduate students, for example, will be expected to do a lot more than, say, someone for whom this is their second linguistics course.) For those without much background, you can do a kind of literature review if you want of some topic relevant to the class. For those with more background, obviously more will be expected. NOTE: A terrific project for students with either a psycholinguistic background/interests or computational linguistics background/interests will be to discuss the relationship between the notion of word meaning used in much of the psycholinguistic and/or computational linguistic literature and the notion used in the more theoretical linguistic literature. How do the results discussed in this course help illuminate or bear on the kinds of questions asked in these neighboring fields? (For example, one might consider how the results about word meaning within the more formal linguistics literature can help illuminate just exactly what is going on when we see lexical priming effects. Or, one can consider some of the tools for looking at word relatedness in the computational literature, and ask whether these can be helped by results of the kind discussed in this course.) For everyone in the class, the paper must (a) be on a topic approved ahead of time, and (b) show some real assimilation of the material in this course. For any course, a good rule of thumb is: don t write a paper that you could have written before taking the course. If the paper shows no contact with what we ve done in the course, it will not be accepted. Paper due date: Dec. 13 Note: Policy on late assignments - Late assignments are not accepted unless accompanied by a written Dean's or Medical excuse. They are always due by 5 pm on the due date.
2 CG Fall, Outline and Readings 2 Tentative Outline and Readings Note: Dates are very tentative, and additional readings might be suggested as we go along 0. Introduction and Overview Sept. 7 PART I: Basic Concepts in Semantics and Pragmatics - How these interact with the lexicon and how the structure of the lexicon informs our understanding of semantics and pragmatics 1. A general framework for semantics; model-theoretic semantics Sept model-theoretic semantics and compositional semantics: the general goals of a semantic theory and the tools of modern linguistic semantics the notion of semantic types; semantic types and the lexicon how model-theoretic semantics can illuminate the study of word meaning, and viceversa Chierchia, Gennaro & Sally McConnell Ginet, Meaning and Grammar, MIT Press, Chapter 2, pp and Jacobson, Pauline, piece of manuscript on Categorial Grammar and semantics 2. Application to the lexicon: decompositional approaches using primitives vs. modeltheoretic approaches Sept. 21-Oct. 2 early ideas on how to represent the component parts of meaning how much syntax is packed into word meanings? what word meaning tells us about the organization of the grammar (and viceversa) recasting decompositional approaches into model-theoretic semantics; how to capture entailments and relations among word meanings Two Case Studies: (a) the representaiton of causative verbs (b) temporal structure in verb meanings McCawley, James, "Lexical Insertion in a Transformational Grammar Without Deep Structure", in Papers from the Fourth Regional Meeting, Chicago Linguistic Society, pp Chierchia, Gennaro and Sally McConnell-Ginet, Meaning and Grammar, MIT Press, Chapter 8, pp Dowty, David, Word Meaning and Montague Grammar, Reidel, pp Pragmatics and the Lexicon Oct Basic Gricean pragmatics, and its application to word meaning

Is there really a uniform class of unaccusative predicates?
