The study of Bantu languages of sub-Saharan Africa has provided the basis for significant contributions to research in linguistics. The papers assembled in this volume, contributed by scholars in Bantu and general linguistics, deal with various aspects of the structure of Bantu languages.

In these papers, the topic of syntax is broadly construed as covering discourse phenomena and the interface between morphology and syntax. Particular emphasis is placed on discourse phenomena, to which are devoted approximately one third of the papers presented in the present work.

A comprehensive bibliography of recent work in the field of natural language processing and computational linguistics. The text contains the relevant 1980s papers to be found in AAAI, ACL, AISB, COLING, ECAI, European ACL, IJCAI, TINLAP and TANLU conference proceedings, amongst others.

Presents work that evolved out of the Third Conference on Situation Theory and Its Applications, held at Oiso, Japan, in November of 1991.

A collection of papers by leading researchers in modal logic and theoretical computer science.

Examines the logical foundations of visual information.

Covers the diverse areas of psycholinguistics, syntax, computational linguistics and phonology. Abney's paper on Chunks provides an approach to phrase structure, motivated by psycholinguist data. Berwick and Fong provide a history of computational implementations of (Chomskyan) Transformational Grammar.

This volume is a collection covering the diverse areas of psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, phonology, and syntax.

The goal of this monograph is to make the understanding of nonmonotonic reasoning more accessible.

This volume's appeal lies in the development of a theory of meaning in ordinary language.

This volume investigates the proper treatment of the semantic or discourse aspects of zibun -binding and their interaction with syntax.

This book develops a comprehensive analysis of the contribution of possessive NPs to the truth conditions of the sentences in which they occur.

This volume proposes that central to an adequate theory of complementation is an account of the role of lexical semantics.

An in-depth investigation into the interaction of place of articulation features and constriction degree features in phonological processes.

Japanese and Korean are typologically quite similar, so a linguistic phenomenon in one language often has a counterpart in the other. The papers in this volume are intended to further compare and/or contrast research in both languages.

This work examines word order in Russian.

This volume contains a collection of articles reflecting the dynamic and lively state of Korean linguistics today.

This book examines Japanese as a configurational language.

This volume presents work conducted in recent years. The different sections link mathematical and computational issues and wh-constructions, anaphoric binding, word order and co-ordination.

The topics of the papers in this collection range from empirical coverage of polarity item systems in a variety of languages to results in metatheoretical reasoning about quantifier reducibility.

A selection of papers presented at the Third Annual Southern California Japanese/Korean Linguistics Conference, held at San Diego State University. The papers discuss aspects of discourse and language acquisitions, syntax and semantics, and phonology.
