Formal approaches to number in Slavic and beyond -
55,00 inkl. MwSt
The goal of this collective monograph is to explore the relationship between the cognitive notion of number and various grammatical devices expressing this concept in natural language with a special focus on Slavic. The book aims at investigating different morphosyntactic and semantic categories including plurality and number-marking, individuation and countability, cumulativity, distributivity and collectivity, numerals, numeral modifiers and classifiers, as well as other quantifiers. It gathers 19 contributions tackling the main themes from different theoretical and methodological perspectives in order to contribute to our understanding of cross-linguistic patterns both in Slavic and non-Slavic languages.

Mojmír Dočekal is an associate professor at the Department of Linguistics and Baltic Languages at the Masaryk University. His research interests comprise compositional semantics and experimental semantics. He has published on negation, pluralities, count-mass, and NPIs. He organized several formal linguistic conferences (FDSL, SinfonIJA, CFG) and co-edited their proceedings.

Marcin Wągiel is a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Linguistics and Baltic Languages at the Masaryk University in Brno, where he completed a Ph.D. thesis on subatomic quantification in natural language. Marcin's research areas are compositional semantics, the syntax/semantics interface including morphosemantics, and linguistic typology. He focuses mainly on quantification, plurality, collectivity and distributivity, modification, genericity, and comparison in Slavic as well as in a broader cross-linguistic perspective.
