Specifikacia Brief History of the Verb To Be Moro AndreaPevná vazba
A journey through linguistic time and space, from Aristotle through the twentieth century's "era of syntax," in search of a dangerous verb and its significance.Beginning with the early works of Aristotle, the interpretation of the verb to be runs through Western linguistic thought like Ariadne's thread. As it unravels, it becomes intertwined with philosophy, metaphysics, logic, and even with mathematics--so much so that Bertrand Russell showed no hesitation in proclaiming that the verb to be was a disgrace to the human race.With the conviction that this verb penetrates modern linguistic thinking, creating scandal in its wake and, like a Trojan horse of linguistics, introducing disruptive elements that lead us to rethink radically the most basic structure of human language--the sentence--Andrea Moro reconstructs this history.
