{"product_id":"beyond-superstructuralism-1","title":"Beyond Superstructuralism","description":"Moving on from his previous book, Superstructuralism , Richard Harland argues that the focus on single words in the structuralist theory of language is its key weakness and that the next advance beyond post-structuralism depends upon replacing word-based with syntagm-based theories. In a lucid way he develops a new syntagmatic theory which shows  that the effect of combining words grammatically can transform the very nature of meaning. The wide breadth of coverage  in the book covers both post-Chomskyan' linguistics and Derrida, and sets up an opposition to analytic and speech-act views of language. By presenting a systematic critique and counter-proposal, Harland challenges the very foundation of recent literary and language based theory.","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54241333444952,"sku":"9780415063586","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780415063586_4ae5b43f-54e1-4110-89ed-71b8053922fd.jpg?v=1770228938","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/beyond-superstructuralism-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
