Description

Linguistic Turns, 1890-1950: Writing on Language as Social Theory provides a new perspective on the intellectual and cultural history of early twentieth-century Europe. This volume explores how language became a central focus for European thinkers during a period of significant social and political change across the continent. Rather than looking at linguistic shifts in isolation, this work examines them in concert to change how readers understand these intellectual movements. By studying various thinkers together, the book reveals how language was invested with extraordinary force when the existing social order was in question. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history of ideas and social theory. It offers a deep look at the connection between linguistic development and the changing landscape of European thought during the first half of the twentieth century.
