À propos de ce produit

Product Information

In On What We Mean , Arnold Chien discusses the meaning of a speaker, a notion we use in everyday conversation. Speaker's meaning is a fundamental notion of pragmatics, i.e. the study of the relation between words and speakers. Yet everyday speaker's meaning has not been systematically studied in philosophy or linguistics.

Reviews
Arnold Chien's book tackles the familiar notion of speaker's meaning with remarkably productive results. First he shows that a surprising wealth of previously unexplored issues around this concept merit careful study. Along the way he delves deeply into the underexplored but pervasive phenomenon of 'conceptual indeterminacy.' He gives a central place in linguistic competence to knowledge of constraints on possible (potentially novel) speaker's meanings. He also applies his framework to a wide range ofphenomena in pragmatics, explaining and unifying them in an illuminating way. This is a comprehensive, rigorous, and original work which will interest researchers in semantics, pragmatics, and philosophy of language and mind.>>, Arnold Chien takes on the important and neglected question of the meanings of abstract and semantically fluid terms such as 'clever,' 'internal,' and 'freedom.' Chien develops a novel account of the relation between conventional and speaker meaning, and gives detailed and subtle application to a wide range of linguistic phenomena, including ambiguity, ellipsis, competence and metaphor, as well as surrounding issues in the philosophy of language and mind.
