December 17---20, 1997
The Eleventh Amsterdam Colloquium is held from Wednesday 17
until Saturday 20 December 1997, at the University of Amsterdam.
The Amsterdam Colloquia aim at bringing together logicians,
philosophers, linguists and computer scientists who share an
interest in semantics. The spectrum of topics covered ranges
from descriptive (semantic analyses of all kinds of
expressions) to theoretical (logical and computational
properties of semantic theories, philosophical foundations).
The program of the Eleventh Amsterdam Colloquium includes
four invited lectures (by James Higginbotham, Jörg Siekmann, Keith Stenning
and Edward N. Zalta), as well as 36 talks selected by an international program
committee. Furthermore two plenary workshops are held: one
on "Games in Logic" and one on "The Semantics of Topic and Focus in Discourse".
