First published in 1979, this book develops a grammatically
orientated semantics (as opposed to a semantically orientated
grammar) of mood and condition in English. It seeks to establish
correspondences between areas of semantic organisation ('planes')
and surface grammar, without reverting to an intermediate notion of
deep grammar. The chapters explore topics including the differences
between 'literal meaning' and 'significance', speech roles, and
constructions of condition and reason in terms of the four panes
discussed earlier in the volume.
