Subjectivity And Perspective In Truth-Theoretic Semantics (Oxford Studies In Semantics And Pragmatics)

This work explores linguistic and philosophical issues presented by sentences expressing personal taste, such as Roller coasters are fun, and examines how truth-theoretic semantics can account for expressions of this type. It provides a detailed and explicit formal grammar paired with semantic analysis and pragmatic theory.
