Research in dynamic semantics has made strides by studying various aspects of discourse
in terms of computational effect systems, for example, monads (Shan, 2002; Charlow, 2014) …

Programmers writing purely functional code have long represented impure, side-effecting
computation using monads. Recent research in program semantics has focussed on graded …

Natural language semanticists have often found it useful to assume that all expressions

One important thing to note is that, when we externally lift a tower, the quantificational part of
the meaning always remains on the same story relative to the bottom story. Intuitively, this …
