Arnim von Stechow: Postscript to “Feature Deletion under Semantic Binding” — A Note on Kratzer 1998 (5 pages, pdf 136KB, May 2003)
bq. After I had delivered the paper (Stechow, 2003), a colleague wrote to me that the system outlined was virtually identical with (Kratzer, 1998), and that this article had not been cited. The longer version (Stechow, 2002 (to appear)) quotes (Kratzer, 1998), and the reference has been deleted by my automatic bibliography program when I rewrote and shortened the paper. I am sorry for that.
bq. I had read Kratzer’s article in 1998 but I had forgotten that it deals with the sequence of tense — besides the inspiring and beautiful things Kratzer says about the tense-aspect architecture. My paper was intended to be a comment on (Schlenker, 1999), and there (Kratzer, 1998) and other sources of inspiration including my own work are cited. I should have compared my account with (Heim, 2001), too. This however turned out to be totally impossible given the limitations of space.
bq. Here are some remarks on the relation between (Stechow, 2003) and (Kratzer, 1998). My remarks are sketchy and incomplete; they show that I haven’t understood yet every detail of Kratzer’s theory.
