Winter 2001: Linguistics 514: Introduction to Semantic Theory.
This is the graduate introduction to formal semantics in the linguistics department. I used Chierchia and
McConnell-Ginet, Meaning and Grammar as the principle text, augmented with readings from Heim and
Kratzer's Semantics in Generative Grammar and Larson and Segal's Knowledge of Meaning. I think all
three textbooks are great, but for different reasons.
