“Angelika Kratzer”:http://www.umass.edu/linguist/people/faculty/kratzer/kratzer.html has posted her slides (and the references) for her upcoming talk “Scalar Implicatures: Are There Any?”:http://semanticsarchive.net/Archive/GJiYjQxN/ at the Workshop on Polarity, Scalar Phenomena, and Implicatures. University of Milan-Bicocca. June 18, 2003.
bq. This talk was inspired by and is a reaction to a talk given by Danny Fox at the University of Texas, Austin on April 21, 2003 (Fox 2003). In his talk, Fox made a proposal about the projection of scalar implicatures that made use of the discussion of only and lumping in Kratzer 1989. While thinking about Fox’s proposal, it occurred to me that within a situation semantics, the puzzle surrounding the projection of scalar implicatures might evaporate. I am grateful to Fox for sending me the handout and notes for his talk.
