Abstract:
Concepts of Meaning includes contributions from well-known
philosophers of language and semanticists. It is a useful collection
for students in philosophy of language, semantics and
epistemology. This work discusses new research in semantics, theory of
truth, philosophy of language and theory of communication from a
trans-disciplinary perspective.
An integrated theory of linguistic behavior should provide a framework
to make behavior intelligible. This work addresses issues such as
sentence meaning, utterance meaning, speaker's intention and
reference, linguistic context, circumstances and background
theories. Readers will learn that interpretation is a result of a
complex pattern.
