Date: Thursday, October 4, 2012
Time: 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Location: Room B316, Tribble Hall
Description: Professor Michaelis Michael, senior lecturer, University of New South Wales, Australia will present a new approach to presupposition, based on the idea that assertion is an action and therefore liable to explanation in the same ways all actions are. The upshot is a simple theory of presupposition fundamentally different from standard approaches.
