Abstract

In the years since 1970, when Montague wrote PTQ, at least two hundred articles inspired by this work have been published, extending and expanding it in many different ways. Some of them achieve larger or otherwise more adequate syntactic coverage of English, along with semantic interpretation of the constructions covered. Others are dedicated to analyzing languages other than English. Some present a different semantic analysis of constructions dealt with in PTQ, or introduce new ideas for semantically analyzing constructions that had not been dealt with previously. Still others attempt to elaborate the semantics to make it possible to deal with new aspects of meaning, such as presupposition.
