Perspectives on Negation and Polarity Items

This title contains a selection of papers on the semantics, acquisition and licensing behaviour of negation. Many of the contributions in this volume are devoted to the study of English, Dutch, German, Hindi, and Greek, and there are some general issues surrounding negation which are addressed, such as the characterization of the notion "strength of negation", and the problem of NEG-raising, the interaction of negation and modality, and the acquisition of negation.
