Produktbeschreibung
"Providing up-to-date, in-depth coverage of the central questions, and written and edited by some of the foremost practitioners in the field, this timely new edition will no doubt be a go-to reference for anyone with a serious interest in the philosophy of language." Kathrin Glüer-Pagin, Stockholm University Now published in two volumes, the second edition of the best-selling Companion to the Philosophy of Language provides a complete survey of contemporary philosophy of language. The Companion has been greatly expanded and now includes 17 new essays, and almost all of the 25 original chapters have been updated to take account of recent developments in the field. In addition to providing a synoptic view of the key issues, figures, and concepts, each essay introduces new and original contributions to ongoing debates in the field. Others address a number of new areas of interest, including two-dimensional semantics, modality and epistemic modals, and semantic relationism. The extended "state of the art" chapter format allows the authors, all of whom are internationally eminent scholars in the field, to incorporate original research to a far greater degree than competing volumes. Unrivaled in scope, A Companion to the Philosophy of Language, Second Edition represents the best contemporary thought in the philosophy of language.
