Abstract
In this paper we tackle the intrasentential anaphora quadrant of the intersentential and intrasentential anaphora and cataphora pie. Montague, 1974 characterized personal pronouns as bound anaphors preceded by their antecedents and taking nominative forms in subject position and accusative forms in object position. In this paper we give a type logical formulation of such a view of anaphora (taking into account also reflexive pronouns). Jäger, 2001 broaches much the same task by a proof-theoretic definition which, it is to be hoped, can be given a model-theoretic justification, whereas here we take ‘type logical’ to mean that the definition is model-theoretic in the first place.
