Abstract

Introducing the theoretical background of this chapter, some preliminary remarks will first be made to address some distinctions of referential and structural semantic theory in linguistics, before second the course of the present approach will be sketched. It is meant to in analyze and represent natural language meaning within the frame of a pragmatically based generative model of structural semantics. Finally and third to illustrate the present approach's feasibility, some examples will be given which resulted from the computational analysis of a corpus of 19th and 20th Century German students' poetry.
