Opis

This volume consists of twelve studies thematically grouped into three parts: (1) Linguistics and Philosophy of Language, (2) Hermeneutics and Text Linguistics, and (3) Lexicology and Phraseology. The phrase tradition and innovation characterizes almost all the texts included here, since tradition and innovation are present both at the level of the object (language) and at the level of its research (linguistics). The dominant theoretical perspective is the Coserian one, since the author borrowed from Eugenio Coseriu's linguistic theory a series of essential concepts and distinctions regarding language and culture.
