H. Kamp on Anaphora - Dictionary of Arguments
Cresswell I 184 Anaphora/Kamp/Heim: Thesis: a discourse section can be interpreted as a "long sentence". HintikkaVsKamp: that is unnatural. CresswellVsHintikka: pro Kamp. It is only about a semantic ((s) non-syntactic) point of view. On the surface we have different sentences. Hintikka: Thesis: a theory like that of Kamp/Heim cannot be applied to question-answer games. CresswellVsHintikka: that does work: E.g. (14) Here is a bee in the room. (15) Will it stab me? I 185 On a certain level one can consider (14) and (15) as a conjunction. >File change semantics, >Prosentential theory, >Conjunction._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
