商品簡介
In early 13th century, linguistic problems typically arose from the encounter of the Aristotelian Organon with other linguistic traditions, notable with Boethius' logical corpus and Priscian's grammar, says Mora-Márquez, and most of the problems revolved around the role significatio plays in the institution of linguistic signs, the grammaticality of sentences, and the truth or falsity of assertions as well as in the question of linguistic communication. She shows that by late in the century, the debate had led masters of art to put forth a notion of signification that is disconnected from the analysis of grammaticality and truth or falsity, and that finally retains a central role only in the institution of simple linguistic items: in impositive grammar.
