Synopsis

Topics in the semantics of Slavic languages contains twelve chapters devoted to a particular topic in formal semantics, as well as an introductory chapter. The topic chapters all consists of two parts: an overview part and a new analytical contribution or case study. The volume fulfills a number of goals: (i) to summarize existing analyses and theories, (ii) to provide a representative bibliographic overview of the relevant literature, (iii) to demonstrate what Slavic data and theories built upon them have to offer to the general linguistic discourse, and (iv) to provide a novel theoretical and/or empirical contribution. The chapters in this collection discuss data from the following Slavic languages: Bosnian/Croatian/Montenegrin/Serbian (BCMS), and more specifically Croatian and Serbian, Bulgarian, Czech, Macedonian, Polish, Resian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Upper Sorbian, and Ukrainian. The collection is of interest to a broad readership - Slavic as well as general linguistic scholars, experienced researchers as well as advanced undergraduate or postgraduate students. Individual contributions can serve as background reading to topical seminars. The volume covers areas of semantics in which Slavic languages have traditionally or more recently played an important role in the general formal semantic discourse (e.g. aspect, event structure, genericity, tense, information structure, negation and NPIs, (in)definiteness and specificity, bare NP semantics), as well as topics that have received less attention in their application to Slavic languages, but are pertinent to the theory of semantics, including its interfaces (e.g. focus participles, questions, imperatives, numerals, passives).
