      ABSTRACT = {The goal of this paper is to lay a logical foundation for discourse theories by providing an algebraic foundation of compositional formalisms for discourse semantics as an analogon to the simply typed Lambda-calculus. Just as that can be specialized to type theory by simply providing a special type for truth values and postulating the quantifiers and connectives as constants with fixed semantics, the proposed dynamic Lambda-calculus DLC can be specialized to Lambda-DRT by essentially the same measures, yielding a much more principled and modular treatment of Lambda-DRT than before, which is also expected to provide a conceptually simple basis for studying higher-order unification for compositional discourse theories. N.B.: After printing we realised that alpha-conversion as defined here is not yet correct; we will publish an improved version soon.},
