Recommended reading:
Some Questions about Language: A Theory of Human Discourse and Its Objects by Mortimer Jerome Adler
“Some Questions about Language culminates in the author’s lifetime concern with basic problems in the philosophy of language. Initiated fifty years ago at Columbia University, carried forward at the University of Chicago and at St. John’s College in Annapolis, and maturing with investigations and discussions undertaken at the Institute for Philosophical Research, the theory expounded in this book provides solutions to certain problems concerning human language. It does not claim to solve all the problems that have been raised by Philosophers, but it does claim to answer the two or three most fundamental of the philosophical questions.” (Open Court Publishing Co., 1976)
