Meredith Landman Guest Lecture

We missed our chance to announce that Meredith Landman was visiting Angelika Kratzer's seminar on pronouns this week. Meredith spoke on Tuesday, April 25. The talk was called 'Possible variables'. It was a thought-provoking, free-ranging discussion of the nature of pronouns, what it means to be an individual, the limits of quantification in natural language, and the nature of the relationship between syntax and semantics.
