• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

""Total Speech "provides an entirely original discussion of some of the most central and controversial issues in the theory and philosophy of language. This book is not just a synopsis of the integrationalist school of thought, it is a major contribution to the development of that thought and to its emergence as a major force in American and European thinking about language."--Talbot Taylor, College of William and Mary
