Language was at the heart of philosophical inquiry for Plato and Aristotle, and in contemporary discussion it is no less central. This book includes essays where each treat a central topic in the study of language. It addresses how expression determines thought according to Humboldt and the use of paraphrase in Quine's semantic ascent.
