"Unity and Plurality presents novel ways of thinking about plurality while casting new light on the interconnections among the logical, philosophical, and linguistic aspects of plurals. The volume brings together new work on the logic and ontology of plurality and on the semantics of plurals in natural language. Plural reference, the view that definite plurals such as 'the students' refer to several entities at once (the individual students), is an approach favoured by logicians and philosophers, who take sentences with plurals ('the students gathered') not to be committed to entities beyond individuals, entities such as classes, sums, or sets. By contrast, linguistic semantics has been dominated by a singularist approach to plurals, taking the semantic value of a definite plural such as 'the students' to be a mereological sum or set. Moreover, semantics has been dominated by a particular ontological view of plurality, that of extensional mereology. This volume aims to build a bridge between the two traditions and to show the fruitfulness of nonstandard mereological approaches. A team of leading experts investigates new perspectives that arise from plural logic and non-standard mereology and explore novel applications to natural language phenomena."-- Pluralism Linguistics Philosophy Logic Carrara Massimiliano editor Arapinis Alexandra 1980- editor Moltmann Friederike editor http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198716327.001.0001 Uni Basel: Volltext https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198716327.001.0001/acprof-9780198716327 Uni Bern: Volltext BK020053 XK020053 XK020000 Oxford Scholarship Online Philosophy Collection 2016-2017 E-Books von 360MarcUpdates Oxford Scholarship Online IDSBB A145 A145 145VT NELA1451802 IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4052004 IDSBB 700 1- Carrara Massimiliano editor IDSBB 700 1- Arapinis Alexandra 1980- editor IDSBB 700 1- Moltmann Friederike editor IDSBB 856 40 http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198716327.001.0001 Uni Basel: Volltext IDSBB 856 40 https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198716327.001.0001/acprof-9780198716327 Uni Bern: Volltext SWISSBIB 366469150
