Double-weighted statement
This is a research monograph. It aims to give an original account of issues in both the History of Analytic Philosophy and the Philosophy of Language. The book aims to challenge orthodox interpretations of Russell, as well as to develop extensions of the theory of descriptions to accommodate concerns in natural language semantics, including context-sensitivity and the interfaces between semantics, syntax, and pragmatics.
