The book presents the  view that the semantic contribution of tense is made in relation to  structurally higher expressions (the `relative tense theory') and  argues against the view that tenses are all indexicals. This idea is  formally encoded as a \n                \n                \u003cem\u003ede se\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                 analysis of attitudes, originally  proposed by Lewis, coupled with a sequence-of-tense rule posited for  English. An auxiliary proposal is made to account for some exceptional  cases (e.g. so-called double-access sentences), which invokes \n                \n                \u003cem\u003ede  re\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                 attitudes about temporal entities (states or intervals). Since  the proposed account assumes that the interpretation of tense is  structure-dependent, it also correctly predicts scope interactions  between tenses and NPs. \n                \n                \u003cbr\u003e\n                                  \n                \n                \u003cem\u003eTense, Attitudes, and Scope\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                 is intended for scholars and  graduate students in formal semantics, syntax-semantics interface,  philosophy of language and Japanese linguistics.\n            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9780792338017\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9789048146406\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9780792338017","offer_id":50827368774,"sku":"9780792338017","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Softcover - 9789048146406","offer_id":39415593631837,"sku":"9789048146406","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/eb3ec3cc-a41f-4295-8507-1fa0336dd3c3.jpg?v=1776321731","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/tense-attitudes-and-scope-von-t-ogihara","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
