Double-weighted statement
This is a research monograph on religious language and the product of several years of research in the field. It aims to give an original general account of religious language, encompassing questions about the semantics and pragmatics of religious language, the attitudes expressed by religious utterances, the meaning of 'God', etc. The book draws on contemporary philosophy of language and aims to build bridges between the philosophy of language and the philosophy of religion; it assesses work on the topic in theology and Continental Philosophy and addresses the historical background to contemporary debates about the meaning of religious utterances.
