Semantics in generative grammar

Cipriani¹

2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

I provide a critical survey of the role that semantics took in the several models of generative grammar, since the 1950s until the Minimalist Program. I distinguish four different periods. In the first section, I focus on the role of formal semantics in generative grammar until the 1970s. In Section 2 I present the period of linguistic wars, when the role of semantics in linguistic theory became a crucial topic of debate. In Section 3 I focus on the formulation of conditions on transformations and Binding Theory in the 1970s and 1980s, while in the last Section I discuss the role of semantics in the minimalist approach. In this section, I also propose a semantically-based model of generative grammar, which fully endorses minimalism and Chomsky’s later position concerning the primary role of the semantic interface in the Universal Grammar modelization (Strong Minimalist Thesis). In the Discussion, I point out some theoretical problems deriving from Chomsky’s internalist interpretation of model-theoretic semantics.

A uniform data structure is defined to represent sentence components (words) for a parallel processor ofthe natural language. The basic notation of rough sets is used for the representation of sentence elements in the computer, to exhibit their context and to select proper meanings. An approximation space reflecting the context of any word in a sentence is defined by induction from the most general meanings of words adjoining that word in the graph model of the sentence andfrom a contextual knowledge base. The contextual knowledge base specifies the meaning ofeach word with respect to the most general words expected to adjoin that word in the graph model of the sentence.
