Semantics: Primes and Universals is a major synthesis of her work, presenting a full and systematic exposition of that theory in a non-technical and readable way. It delineates a full set of universal concepts, as they have emerged from large-scale investigations across a wide range of languages undertaken by the author and her colleagues. On the basis of empirical cross-linguistic studies it vindicates the old notion of the 'psychic unity of mankind', while at the same time offering a framework for the rigorous description of different languages and cultures.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 233mmItem Length: 154mmItem Width: 29mmItem Weight: 748gAuthor: Anna WierzbickaGenre: Language & ReferenceRelease Year: 1996 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
