Description

This Routledge Library Editions volume explores how meaning emerges from complex sentences and their constituent elements, with particular focus on opaque constructions where standard compositional principles become unusually intricate. The study addresses a significant gap in linguistic analysis by demonstrating that the systematic ambiguity present in opaque constructions has been substantially underestimated in prior research. The book provides a comprehensive examination of how meaning composition works at the sentence level, offering scholars and linguists a detailed theoretical framework for understanding these complex linguistic phenomena and their implications for semantics and syntax.

Key Features

Routledge Library Editions volume focused on compositional semantics and meaning in complex sentences.

Explores opaque constructions where standard meaning composition principles require special theoretical treatment.

Argues that systematic ambiguity in opaque contexts deserves greater attention than existing linguistic literature provides.

Addresses how meanings of constituent clauses, phrases and words combine to form whole sentence meaning.

Essential reference for linguists studying grammar, structure and syntax at advanced academic levels.
