Description

Media Reviews
'Roy Harris's Language, Saussure and Wittgenstein is a particularly welcome bridge between philosophy and linguistics ... Careful exploration of this important and influential theory ... illustrates how comparative studies of thinkers may occasionally create fascinating diffraction patterns.' - The Guardian
