Katrin Schulz. “You may read it now or later: A Case Study on the Paradox of Free Choice Permission”. Master Thesis, Master of Logic Program/ ILLC Amsterdam, supervised by Prof. Dr. F. Veltman.

“[T]he thesis pursuits two different but strongly connected aims. First, it tries to account for a notorious problematic observation concerning the interpretation of certain sentences of English: the paradox of free choice permission. More particularly, the intention is to account for this observation in terms of Grice’s theory of conversational implicatures. Secondly, before this theory can be used first it has to be made precise. Here, the intention is to provide a (part-wise) formalization using results from non-monotonic logic.”
