Dear all,

In preparation for writing a short vignette on coordination for the 100 things semantics book, I’m looking for a good overview of coordination semantics to read. Does anyone have a favorite source for things like distributive v. collective readings, ‘and-then’ interpretation of conjoined events, etc?

Thanks!

In Chapter 3 of Rui Chaves’ dissertation,  
[http://lingo.stanford.edu/sag/papers/rui-diss.pdf](http://lingo.stanford.edu/sag/papers/rui-diss.pdf)  
he provides a readable overview of the semantics of coordination.
