Allegory: Structure, Interpretation and Polysemy
In allegories polysemy relates not only to the context and the audience’s understanding but also to the structural characters of these texts. This paper investigates the function of structural and narrative properties in the creation of multiple interpretations of an allegory. Focusing on the events and following a unique story-line is the most important trait in helping to read the alleg...
متن کاملVirtual Polysemy
We present an approach to lexical knowledge representation where different uses of the same word can be conflated into a single meta-entry which encodes regnlarities about sense/usage extensibility. This approach makes it possible to solve lexical anrbiguities by using contextual information (luring language processing to ground underspecified word entries, and can be efficiently implemented wi...
متن کاملProductivity, Polysemy, and Predicate Indexicality
This paper argues that at least some cases of productive language use, specifically cases of apparent variation in word sense, require a treatment at the conceptual level rather than a lexical semantic solution. It is argued that the lexical semantics should be left underspecified in these cases, and the observed variation in truth-conditions should be attributed to differences in conceptual re...
متن کاملGenerating Polysemy: Metaphor and Metonymy
In this paper I want to show why metaphor and metonymy are, on the one hand side, two distinct types of generating new meanings for existing expressions, and why, on the other hand, there are many cases which can either been viewed as metaphor or as metonymy, without the one way of understanding excluding the other. After having given a general characterization of metaphoric and metonymic conce...
متن کاملCross-sortal Predication and Polysemy
This paper develops new treatment of the problem of cross-sortal predication and copredication in particular. We argue that the solution to these predicate-argument sort mismatches can be solved by a more flexible treatment of polysemy based on the notion of dependent type and dynamic construction of meaning.
