Paperback. Brings thinking about semantics to bear on the question of how, and how much, language corresponds to thought.

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.
