Abstract
Concepts and techniques developed in medieval theories of language, about which Jan Pinborg taught us all so much, were frequently applied to philosophical and theological problems throughout the Middle Ages, but in new and particularly subtle ways in the early fourteenth century. I am taking this occasion to present a sample of one important genre of early fourteenth-century applications of semantic theory and linguistic analysis. I hope that a close look at a small representative sample will provide a more pointed and intriguing introduction to this still largely unfamiliar literature than can be provided in historical surveys, indispensable though they are.1
