Semantics ─ An International Handbook of Natural Language Meaning

The three-volume set discusses the foundations and methodology of semantics, introduces the major theoretical frameworks and theoretical issues, examines a wide variety of specific topics and phenomena of natural language meaning, and explores relations between semantics and other fields within and beyond linguistics. It updates the previous series Semantics--An International Handbook of Contemporary Research, which began publication in 1991. This third volume covers the interface of semantics with phonology and morphology, the syntax-semantics interface, the semantics-pragmatics interface, typology and crosslinguistic semantics, diachronic semantics, processing and learning meaning, and semantics and computer science.
