Description

Semantics, the study of meaning, combines philosophy, linguistics, psychology, and anthropology. This compilation of scholarship from all four disciplines complements the author's earlier volumes, giving comprehensive annotations and bringing the total number of entries in the 3-volume series to over 7,400. Book titles appear in the first section, followed by articles and conference papers under 22 headings: surveys of semantics, definitions and models of meaning, reference, ambiguity, synonymy, antonymy, polysemy, homonymy, morpho-semantic fields, word-association, semantic fields and componential analysis, kinship terms, color terms, semantics of parts of speech, syntax and semantics, negation, modals, idioms, case grammar, child language, comparative semantics, and semantics universals.
