David Ian Beaver is a professor of linguistics and philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin , where he also directs the cognitive science program and serves as Graduate Studies Advisor of the Human Dimensions of Organizations Master's program.[1] [2] [3] His work concerns the semantics and pragmatics of natural language , including, in particular, research on presupposition , anaphora , topic and focus .[4]
Education and career [ edit ]
Beaver received a B.Sc. in 1988 from the Departments of Physics and Philosophy at the University of Bristol , an M.Sc. in 1989 from the Department of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Edinburgh , and a Ph.D. in 1995 from the Centre for Cognitive Science also at the University of Edinburgh , where his principal advisor was Ewan Klein and his secondary advisor was Robin Cooper.[5] [6]
Beaver was an assistant professor (1997-2005) and an associate professor (2005-2007) at Stanford University before he was hired as an associate professor by the University of Texas at Austin in 2007.[6] Beaver was promoted to full professor by UT Austin in 2011.[7]
Research [ edit ]
In addition to his work in formal semantics and pragmatics, Beaver contributes to research on the social dimensions of language use, a topic of quite general interest as evidenced by a 29 October 2011 New York Times op-ed by Ben Zimmer , which discusses Beaver's work on sentiment in Arab Spring tweets.[8]
Beaver's 2013 paper, "Toward a taxonomy of projective content," coauthored with Judith Tonhauser , Craige Roberts , and Mandy Simons won the 2013 Best Paper in Language (journal) Award from the Linguistic Society of America .[9]
