Lexical semantics is approached by students of linguistics at various points in

their undergraduate and graduate curricula, and this book is intended to suit

anyone who has had some introduction to linguistics, but who has not yet studied

lexical semantics in any depth. Given such a broad audience, it is inevitable

that at some points in the text some readers will consider the material difficult

and others will consider it a bit basic. My aim is to present problems of word

meaning in all their messy glory – showing where there are interesting problems

to be solved and considering multiple viewpoints on those problems. The big

questions of how meanings work have been pondered for centuries, but the

answers remain elusive, since how these questions can be answered depends

upon the background assumptions about the nature of language, meaning, and

mind that different approaches bring to them. In order to limit the range of

background assumptions, this book is biased toward componential theories that

are compatible with generative approaches to grammar. For readers who already

have some general knowledge about linguistic theories, this book demonstrates

how those approaches tackle issues of word meaning. Readers for whom these

theories are not yet familiar will discover how their perspectives vary when it

comes to the lexicon and meaning. If this leaves you wanting more information

about the theories generally, the “Further reading” section near the end of each

chapter plots out a proposed course of reading to broaden and deepen your

knowledge of these subjects.
