Wrestling with Words and Meanings honors the life and career of
Professor Keith Allan, commemorating at the same time the occasion
of his 70th birthday. The book brings together top-level
researchers in linguistics - colleagues, collaborators, and former
students - who have all been inspired by Allan's work in some way.
These appropriately eclectic contributions are organized into the
three main themes that run through Allan's multifaceted and
multifarious research: word meaning, pragmatics and discourse, and
semantic theory and philosophy of language. The festschrift offers
glimpses into corpus linguistics, cognitive linguistics, and
cultural linguistics, as well as the more traditional descriptive,
diachronic, and typological perspectives. It is an outstanding
collection in honor of an outstanding researcher. (Series:
