Title
Semantics For Descriptions (Volume 138) (Lecture Notes)
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In Our Multimedia Age, Text Description Presents Many Conceptual Problems: Texts, As Cultural Objects, Cannot Be Interpreted Without Descriptions Of Genre, Communicative Conditions, And Language, Which Positivist Approaches Have Proved Unable To Provide. Semantics For Descriptions Addresses Itself As Much To Linguists As To Computer Scientists, Arguing That Rational Hermeneutics Can Offer Better Descriptive Methods By Allowing The Theoretical And Practical Conditions Of Text Interpretation To Be Defined.
