Annotation

This volume bears on the linguistic foundations of culture and society, focusing on the concepts of responsibility and evidence as components of the framework for social life. Some of the items dealt with are the association and dissociation of meaning and intention, the problem of social identity and -though scarcely- the connection between responsibility and evidence.
