Publisher Description: The book introduces the concept of intertextual memory into the domain of linguistic theory. All new facts of speech are grounded in the speakers' memory of previous experiences of using language. The new meaning is shown to be always superscribed on the familiar and recognizable, as its more or less radical alteration. |
