The Word and the World

By: Akhtar, Nasmeem Farhin

This book is an attempt to examine language in its referential and non-referential (figurative) aspects. Whether it is a work of literature or theory, writers and readers are confronted with the problem of language in both its aspects. It is often hard to determine where word and thing connect or fail to connect, irrespective of the nature of the discourse. Moreover, every articulation is likely to be as much about something other than, outside or beyond itself. The language of communication can incorporate elements of discourse and vice-versa.
