SUMMARY:4th Installment of Logic Now and Then (LNA
 T4): Scales in language and logic, Brussels, Belgi
 um
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180920

LOCATION:Brussels, Belgium
DESCRIPTION:Scalarity is a rich field of study in 
 linguistics and logic. Linguistically, it enters i
 nto the meaning of a wide range of expressions. Th
 e best-known case in degree semantics may well be 
 the gradable adjective (tall, short, likely, good 
 ), but crosscategorially many other cases have bee
 n detected and analysed in similar scalar terms. L
 NAT4 seeks to consider (i) the nature and variatio
 n of scalarity in language and logic, (ii) the dia
 grams proposed for scalar notions, as well as (iii
 ) the nature of possible connections between logic
 o-linguistic scalar concepts and perception scales
 .  Invited Speakers: Christopher Kennedy (Universi
 ty of Chicago) and Stefanie Solt (Leibniz-Zentrum 
 Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft (ZAS).  We welcome p
 apers on any of the conference topics. Abstracts s
 hould be in PDF-format, anonymous, at most one pag
 e long, and should include any example sentences. 
 A second page may be added for bibliographical ref
 erences only.
