Consistency and Logical Consequence
TLDR
During 1962–63, as a senior at Yale University, I had the good fortune to work as Nuel Belnap’s research assistant, and now recall mainly the excitement of collaboration, on which I have been hooked ever since, and the discovery of what it is like to do research.
Intensionality and context change

TLDR
A theory of properties and propositions that meets these desiderata is developed and several applications to the semantic analysis of natural languages are explored.
Language as an interaction system
From Logic to Language Visiting
TLDR
R.Zou: In the 1980s, following the introduction of R. Montague’s Formal Philosophy in China, Chinese scholars began to read your compilation entitled Montague Grammar, on which formal semantics is based, and you have established a reputation among Chinese scholars.

On Logical Nihilism

The logic of indexicals
TLDR
It is argued that a sequence of sentences may make up a valid argument in one sequence of contexts, and an invalid one in another such sequence, and that this is an unavoidable result of context sensitivity in general and of the nature of indexicals in particular.

TLDR
This paper presents a model-theoretic semantics that, based on a cognitive approach to the notions of context and meaning, succeeds in addressing the quantificational case in a flexible manner that overcomes the limitations of the previous initiatives.
Logic, the A priori, and the empirical
The time-honored view that logic is a non-empirical enterprise is still widely accepted, but it is not always recognized that there are (at least) two distinct ways in which this view can be made…
