Re: Linguist 12.2075
Sometime back I had sent a posting to the LINGUIST, asking for
literature on Mood and Modality, which give a syntactico-semantic
analysis of the subject. Following persons replied
Ressy ai <raiuci.edu>
1) Palmer (1986): ("Mood and Modality". Cambridge: Cambridge University
Press.)
2) Her proposal for this subject for the summer fellowship in UCI
(University of California, Irvine.)

Ken Hughes
hughesunixg.ubc.ca
He did a thesis a few years back which argues for a "bi-clausal"
analysis
of modal auxiliary verbs, and discusses a range of issues such as:
o semantic emptiness and the pivotal role of infinitival TO w.r.t.
non-finite (i.e. tenseless) nested propositions, including a survey
of the range of the types of modality in English (following Palmer);
o some brief address to using Husserl's transcendental phenemenology
for a constrained version of intentionality to address some of
the semantic issues.
He sent the addresses of the following websites :
1) A summary and pdf doc at
http://www.educ.ubc.ca/courses/hughes
2)A brief paper that was accepted for the current Verona Conference on
Modality at
http://www.interchange.ubc.ca/hughes/hughesVerona.pdf
Thank you very much.
Ken Hughes web addresses turned out to be most valuable, because I was able
to download his thesis and the papers from there. Palmer's book I already
have. I couldnot get the papers of Chunmin Lee.
Some people wanted me to pass on the literature that I receive.
Unfortunately I can't, since I didnot get them. If I do, I will,
for sure.
If some more web addresses can be suggested, so that I can download
from there, I'll be really grateful.
Thanx in advance .
