• Definiteness and determinacy (2015, background): “…an analysis accommodating this kind of weak definite without abandoning the assumption that the definite article contributes a uniqueness presupposition by invoking kind reference, and Schwarz (2012) offers a slightly different proposal in terms of kinds, also maintaining uniqueness for definites.”
