How generics obscure the logic of conditionals
Mind &Language, EarlyView.This paper discusses counter‐examples to modus ponens and modus tollens involving modals and quantificational adverbs, and presents new counter‐examples with generic conditionals.

Mind &Language, EarlyView.We argue that intentionalist accounts of ostensive‐inferential communication fail to adequately explain the role of external representations in human communication. We propose that the contents of a specific form of representational communication, symbolic depictions via spatio‐temporal arrangements of objects, can be inferred without attributing ...
