This, of course, isn't remotely true of a lot of real-world language use. Bad Language is the first textbook to explore non-idealized language use, the linguistic behaviour of those who exploit language for malign purposes. Two eminent philosophers of language present a lively and accessible introduction to a wide range of topics including lies and bullshit, slurs and insults, coercion and silencing ; Cappelen and Dever offer theoretical frameworks for thinking about these all too common linguistic behaviours. As the text does not assume prior training in philosophy or linguistics, it is ideal for use as part of a philosophy of language course for philosophy students or for linguistics students. Bad Language belongs to the series Contemporary Introductions to Philosophy of Language, in which each book introduces an important area of the philosophy of language, suitable for students at any level. 505 0 $a Idealized Communication -- Three Forms of Non-Ideal Language -- Messing with the Truth -- Bullshitting and Deep Bullshitting -- Conceptual Engineering -- Slurs and Pejoratives -- Lexical Effects -- Generics and Defective Reasoning -- Non-Ideal Speech Acts -- Linguistic Oppressing and Linguistic Silencing -- Speech Act of Consent -- Thoughts on Ideal vs Non-Ideal Theories of Language. 650 0 $a Language and languages $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Truthfulness and falsehood. 650 0 $a Discrimination in language. 650 0 $a Communication. 650 7 $a Communication. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869952 650 7 $a Discrimination in language. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01910947 650 7 $a Language and languages $x Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992193 650 7 $a Truthfulness and falsehood. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01158255 650 7 $a Ehrverletzung $2 gnd 650 7 $a LuÂge $2 gnd 650 7 $a Manipulation $2 gnd 650 7 $a Missbrauch $2 gnd 650 7 $a Soziolinguistik $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sprache $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sprachverhalten $2 gnd 650 7 $a Unwahrheit $2 gnd 700 1 $a Dever, Josh, $e author. 830 0 $a Contemporary introductions to philosophy of language. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017013625.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BBB308E8586511EA978CCE3397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
