Two conceptions of absolute generality
What is absolutely unrestricted quantification? We distinguish two theoretical roles and identify two conceptions of absolute generality: maximally strong generality and maximally inclusive generality. We also distinguish two corresponding kinds of absolute domain. A maximally strong domain contains every potential counterexample to a generalisation. A maximally inclusive domain is such that no domain extends it. We argue that both conceptions of…
Unrestricted Quantification and the Structure of Type Theory
Semantic theories based on a hierarchy of types have prominently been used to defend the possibility of unrestricted quantification. However, they also pose a prima facie problem for it: each quantifier ranges over at most one level of the hierarchy and is therefore not unrestricted. It is difficult to evaluate this problem without a principled account of what it is for a quantifier to be unrestricted. Drawing on an insight of Russell's about the…
Logic and Plurals
Logical analysis generally proceeds by paraphrasing sentences of natural language in a way that provides a more perspicuous representation of logically relevant features of those sentences. In linguistics, an influential approach to plurals is that of Godehard Link, who uses mereological sums to analyze plurals. This chapter introduces a formal language that may be used to regiment a wide range of natural language uses of plurals. George Boolos c…
Unrestricted Quantification
Semantic interpretations of both natural and formal languages are usually taken to involve the specification of a domain of entities with respect to which the sentences of the language are to be evaluated. A question that has received much attention of late is whether there is unrestricted quantification, quantification over a domain comprising absolutely everything there is. Is there a discourse or inquiry that has absolute generality? After fra…

Stop and Freeze
Going to school involves more than the mastery of academic content. Children learn as well to become socially competent members of the classroom community. Classroom interaction is a social activity comprised of the verbal and nonverbal behaviors which students and teachers manifest and interpret in face-to-face encounters. This study uses microethnographic techniques to discover and describe important aspects of the social competence acquired by…
