"Words are the foundation, the building blocks of language. In this book, Walter Hirtle presents the word as the smallest element of meaning in the brain. He also explores how thoughts in the mind of a speaker become a succession of spoken words that get translated back into meaning in the mind of a listener. Inspired by the work of the French linguist Gustave Guillaume and last of a series, The Word and its Ways in English is a study of the way the word is configured in English, an attempt to discern its nature. His exploration covers different categories of words and how grammatical components such as person, case and gender, contribute to the word's overall meaning and are intimately linked to the mind. The Word and its Ways in English is thought provoking for anybody seeking a deeper understanding of the link between language, meaning and words."--

This volume presents, for the first time in English, a representative view of Gustave Guillaume's thought. The texts, drawn mainly from his manuscript notes for lectures at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes in Paris, were selected as far as possible for their accessibility, as requiring no prior knowledge of his work. The result is a panorama of the far-ranging and often provocative thought of one of the twentieth century's most original linguists.
