Paperback. Brings thinking about semantics to bear on the question of how, and how much, language corresponds to thought. This title argues that lying is a function not of words but of sentences; it belongs to the semantic aspect of language. It forges links between linguistic and literary categories on the one hand and ethics and good manners on the other. Translator(s): Churchill, Larry R.; Brown, Jane K.; Brown, Marshall.
