The beginning Greek student faces a vexing dilemma: a myriad of
vocabulary words to learn and little time to learn them. One of the
century's leading Greek scholars offers a solid solution by
organizing Greek words according to their frequency of appearance
in the New Testament. This text helps students maximize their study
by concentrating on the words that appear most often in the Greek
New Testament. (67)
Horst Ruthrof revisits Husserl's phenomenology of language and
highlights his late writings as essential to understanding the full
range of his ideas. Focusing on the idea of language as imaginable
as well as the role of a speech community in constituting it,
Ruthrof provides a powerful re-assessment of his methodological
phenomenology. From the Logical Investigations to untranslated
portions of his Nachlass, Ruthrof charts all the developments and
amendments in his theorizations. Ruthrof argues that it is the
intersubjective character to linguistic meaning that is so
emblematic of Husserl's position. Bringing his study up to the
present day, Ruthrof discusses mental time travel, the evolution of
language, and protosyntax in the context of Husserl's late
writings, progressing a comprehensive new phenomenological ontology
of language with wide-ranging implications for philosophy,
linguistics, and cultural studies.
