This book is the first systematic account of the syntax and semantics of names. Drawing on work in onomastics, philosophy, and linguistics the author examines the distribution and subcategorization of names within a framework of syntactic categories and considers how the morphosyntactic behavior of names connects to their semantic roles in a range of languages. John Anderson's original and accessible investigation will appeal to scholars and advanced students of linguistics and philosophy.
