Produktbeschreibung

Unlock the timeless mysteries of language and meaning through the lens of one of history's greatest thinkers. In this groundbreaking study, Michael Young delves deep into Saint Augustine's pioneering philosophy of language, exploring how words function as signs, how meaning is conveyed between speaker and listener, and why the problem of interpretation remains as urgent today as it was in late antiquity.

From Augustine's insights on the nature of words and their relationship to reality, to his profound reflections on Scripture's sacred language, this book reveals the intricate dynamics of communication, interpretation, and truth. Young examines Augustine's concept of the "inner Word" and divine illumination, showing how language is not just a human tool but a conduit to the divine.

Bridging history, philosophy, theology, and linguistics, this volume offers an erudite yet accessible guide to Augustine's enduring influence on medieval thought, modern philosophy, and contemporary hermeneutics. Whether you are a scholar, student, or curious reader, Language, Meaning, and the Problem of Interpretation in Augustine's Philosophy of Language invites you on a fascinating journey into the heart of meaning itselfand the eternal quest to understand the words that shape our world.
