Posted by Nat Hansen at 10:39 AM. Since this is the first time I review an attempt to answer this question, a “semantic” one, and since we will encounter the same question in the introductory sections of (Kempson, 1977), I will follow Bach closely. In Partee (2004) Compositionality in formal semantics, Barbara Partee describes her first introduction to Montague's work at a UCLA seminar in 1968 (attended also by David Lewis). Montague: Formal Philosophy (Introduction + Chapter 8 PTQ). By Alan Henderson Gardiner; The Sound Pattern of English By Noam Chomsky, Morris Halle; Aspects of the Theory of Syntax By Noam Chomsky; Introduction to Montague Semantics by David R. After this, the idea of a generative grammar, in Chomsky's and Montague's vision, is explained then illustrated with a simple language resembling, for the sake of simplicity, the first-order predicate calculus. But I don't remember a semantic theory emerging from it that I could use the way I use (say) the theory developed in Dowty, Wall, and Peters *Introduction to Montague Semantics*.
