Publisher's Synopsis
The book titled ""The Meaning of Words, Analyzed into Words and Unverbal Things: And Unverbal Things Classified into Intellections, Sensations, and Emotions"" was written by Alexander Bryan Johnson and published in 1862. The book is an exploration of the relationship between words and the concepts they represent, as well as an analysis of the different types of nonverbal experiences that humans can have. The author argues that words are not just arbitrary symbols, but are instead intimately connected to the ideas and experiences they represent. He breaks down the meaning of words into their constituent parts, examining how individual sounds and syllables can contribute to a word's overall meaning. In addition to this analysis of language, the book also explores the different types of nonverbal experiences that humans can have. Johnson categorizes these experiences into three broad categories: intellections (thoughts and ideas), sensations (physical experiences like touch and taste), and emotions (feelings like joy, anger, and sadness). Overall, ""The Meaning of Words"" is a fascinating exploration of the complex relationship between language and human experience. It offers a unique perspective on the nature of communication and the ways in which we make sense of the world around us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
