Subjective Meaning: Alternatives to Relativism

Subjective Meaning: Alternatives to Relativism (Linguistische Arbeiten, Book 559) by Cecile Meier and Janneke Van Wijnbergen-huitink
English | 2016 | ISBN: 3110374722 | 246 pages | PDF | 3,8 MB

A dish may be delicious, a painting beautiful, a piece of information justified. Whether the attributed properties "really" hold, seems to depend on somebody like a speaker or a group of people that share standards and background. Relativists and contextualists differ in where they locate the dependency theoretically. This book collects papers that corroborate the contextualist view that the dependency is part of the language.
