In this paper we present two kinds of procedural semantics for privative modification. We do this for three reasons. The first reason is to launch a tough test case to gauge the degree of substantial agreement between a constructivist and a realist interpretation of procedural semantics; the second is to extend Martin-Lof's Constructive Type Theory to privative modification, which is characteristic of natural language; the third reason is to sketch a positive characterization of privation.

Abstract

In this paper we present two kinds of procedural semantics for privative modification. We do this for three reasons. The first reason is to launch a tough test case to gauge the degree of substantial agreement between a constructivist and a realist interpretation of procedural semantics; the second is to extend Martin-Lof's Constructive Type Theory to privative modification, which is characteristic of natural language; the third reason is to sketch a positive characterization of privation.
