Osnova
  • Semantics (as the study of meaning) is central to the study of communication. This option offers an introduction to some of the basic concepts of semantics. The seminar is aimed at encouraging an active approach of students toward the subject matter. The range of the topics dealt with will cover: SENTENCE MEANING - atomic and compound propositions, semantic roles, locution and illocution, sentence relations, context, truth-based semantics, semantics versus pragmatics, semantics and grammar. WORD MEANING:dictionary entry, mental image, referential meaning, componential meaning, lexical relations, lexical ambiguity, polysemy. SENTENCE MEANING: - atomic and compound propositions - semantic roles - locution and illocution - sentence relations: (a) paraphrases (b) entailment (c) presupposition (d) contradiction - context - truth-based semantics - semantics versus pragmatics - semantics and grammar. WORD MEANING - dictionary entry - mental image - referential meaning (intension, extension) - componential meaning - lexical relations (a) synonymy (b) antonymy : gradable, complementary, relational - lexical ambiguity, polysemy. MODELS OF MEANING - extensional model of meaning - intensional model of meaning - 'hyperintensional' model of meaning - dynamic model of meaning
