At the beginning stands Montague‘s pioneering work, showing how a rigorous semantics can be given for complete fragments of natural language by creating a suitable fit between syntactic categories and semantic types. This very enterprise already dispelled entrenched prejudices concerning the separation of linguistics and logic. Having seen the light, however, there is no reason at all to stick to the letter of Montague‘s proposals, which are often debatable. Subsequently, then, many improvements have been made upon virtually every aspect of the enterprise.
