The editor of each volume contributes an introductory essay on the items chosen and on the questions with which they deal. A selective bibliography is appended as a guide to further reading." "This volume presents a selection of the most important writings in the debate on the nature of meaning and reference which started at the end of the nineteenth century with Frege's classic essay 'On Sense and Reference'. This subject lies at the very heart of the philosophy of language."--BOOK JACKET UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0603/92027073-d.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0603/92027073-t.html UR - http://www.gbv.de/dms/bowker/toc/9780198751250.pdf ER -
