To give the meaning of a sentence amounts to being capable of producing some substitute based on the identity of the terms of the sentence. Is then the meaning of a book, or of any text, the capacity of rewriting it? Instead of retaining a double-standard theory of meaning, one for sentences and another for texts, that would allow for an <i>ad hoc</i> gap, the author provides a unified conception, called the question view of language he has developed, known as <i>problematology</i>. He pursues a systematic analysis of questioning in literature and shows how questioning makes the understanding process possible. 04 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475/pb.iv.3.png 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_jpg/9789027225153.jpg 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_tif/9789027225153.tif 06 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_front/pb.iv.3.pb.png 07 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/125/pb.iv.3.png 25 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_back/pb.iv.3.pb.png 27 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/3d_web/pb.iv.3.pb.png 10 01 JB code pb.iv.3.01ack ix 1 Miscellaneous 1 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Acknowledgments</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pb.iv.3.02int 1 1 Miscellaneous 2 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">0.
