About this document
London School of Linguistics Overview by sattizafar0 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The London School of Linguistics, founded by John Rupert Firth in 1944, significantly contributed to phonology and semantics, emphasizing the situational theory of meaning. This theory posits that the meaning of linguistic units is dependent on their use in specific contexts, focusing on individual speech rather than collective social experiences. Key figures include Firth, Henry Sweet, and Daniel Jones, each contributing to the development of linguistics and phonetics in their own right.
