It has been shown in the literature that tense, aspect and world knowledge (also called common or shared knowledge) all play a role in determining the global temporal structure of a text as well as its discourse structure (Caenepeel and Moens, 1994; Kamp and Rohrer, 1983; Lascarides and Asher, 1993). In this paper we focus on the role of the French connective puis (then, afterwards) and its intersentential semantics. The objective is to give an account of the way this temporal connective interacts with discourse relations and thus bring a new contribution to the
文献表明,时态、方面和世界知识(也称为共同或共享知识)都在决定文本的整体时间结构及其话语结构方面发挥作用(Caenepeel和Moens, 1994;Kamp and Rohrer, 1983;Lascarides and Asher, 1993)。本文主要探讨法语连接词“然后”(then)和“之后”(after)的作用及其间歇语义。目的是给出这种时间连接语与话语关系相互作用的方式的解释,从而为语言学带来新的贡献

When it comes to the interpretation of pronouns or variables, theories of interpretation generally adduce contexts in which these elements feel at home. When pronouns are, thus, accommodated conveniently, they pretty passively do what the contexts tell them to do, which is hardly anything. These elements nevertheless succeed in oiling the wheels of efficient linguistic information exchange. Upon closer inspection, it is hard to say what the meaning of pronouns precisely is. They turn out to have subtle indexical presuppositions but they easily go unnoticed because pronouns so eagerly require these to be satisfied whenever they are there. In this paper we try to uncover the character of pronouns and to identify their lexico-logical needs. We attempt a characterization of their indexical presuppositions in what we call an ‘intentional space’, a concept formulated within a many-sorted modal logic.

This paper 1 deals with presuppositional effects by the temporal discou rse markersafter and beforewithin a multi-sentence discourse. By presenting data wrt. implicitly expressed causal relations, the proposal by Lascarides and Oberlander (1993) i s crit cised and a formalisation of the discourse usage of the two temporal connectives is given by e xtending van der Sandt’s (1992) approach to presupposition within DRT.
本文研究了多句语篇中前后时间语篇标记语的预设效应。通过呈现数据。对Lascarides和Oberlander(1993)提出的隐含表达的因果关系进行了批判,并通过扩展van der Sandt(1992)在DRT中的预设方法,给出了两个时间连接词的语篇使用的形式化。
