内容説明
This book examines definitions of lexical ambiguity and presents a re-definition through a semantic-pragmatic approach. It analyses the use of ambiguous words in poetry, in particular through the use of examples from the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins. It also discusses the value of lexical ambiguity by showing how ambiguous words are related to ambiguity in poems as a whole.

内容説明
Broad ranging and authoritative, this series incorporates major new work in all areas of linguistics. Ambiguity is widespread in the language of literature. This book explains and examines the meaning of the term and analyses the use of ambiguous words in poetry, in particular through the use of examples in the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins. It examines definitions of literary ambiguity and presents a re-definition through a semantic-pragmatic approach, emphasising the importance of context and interaction between reader and text. It also differentiates ambiguity from its cognates of double meaning, multiple meaning, indeteminacy, vagueness and obscurity. It explores the sources of lexical ambiguity ranging from the metaphor to lexical innovation and referential uncertainty, examines the value of lexical ambiguity by showing how ambiguous words are related to ambiguity in poems as a whole.
