If spoken English is not easy for you (or you don't feel like watching a video) then you might want to look at the slides: http://iitp.ru/upload/content/1196/Partee2015ApresjanSem.pps.pdf

Either way, it's a nice introduction and overview of the history of formal semantics, given by someone who is eminently qualified to talk about it (she was both a student of Chomsky and one of the people who took Montague's class).
