I.A. Richards

  • Context is crucial in constructing meaning
  • Semantic triangle
    • Symbol
    • Reference (thought) 
    • Referent 
  • Basic English (850 words) seems to be a purification move 
  • Rhetoric is “how words work in discourse” and “the study of misunderstanding and its remedies.”
