Embedding Intensional Semantics into Inquisitive Semantics [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   8 downloads  
Ciardelli, Roelofsen, and Theiler (2017) have shown how a Montague-like semantic frame- work based on inquisitive logic allows for a uniform compositional treatment of both declarative and interrogative constructs. In this setting, a natural question is the one of the relation between the intensional and the inquisitive interpretation of a declarative sentence. We tackle this problem by defining an embedding of intensional semantics into inquisitive semantics, in the spirit of de Groote’s and Kanazawa’s (2013) intensionalization procedure. We show that the resulting inquisitivation procedure preserves intensional validity and entailment.
