First published in 1992, this book brings analytic philosophy to bear on issues of Continental philosophy, with attention to linguistics, semiology, and semiotics. Instead of regarding meanings as guaranteed by definitions, the author argues that linguistic expressions are schemata directing us toward the activation of nonlinguistic sign systems.

In this book, first published in 1981, the author argues that narrative is an interaction between "the presented world and the presentational process" and attempts to define narrative from the perspective of reading. The Reader¿s Construction of Narrative includes chapters on narrative language, translating narrative and discusses what happens when we read a narrative text. This book will be of particular interest to students of literary theory.
