Abstract

The first part of the paper traces the history of the relationship between logic and linguistics with particular emphasis on the contributions of Tarski and Ajdukiewicz. In the second part we give a brief review of current work on formal semantics for natural language systems and argue for the need for a richer geometric structure on the semantic model space
