"Folk-Taxonomies in Early English is recommended for scholars and students of medieval and Renaissance English literature, for Indo-Europeanists, classicists, historical linguists, and anthropological linguists. Readers who have an interest in the philosophy of universals will be challenged by its analysis of universals as a problem in discourse analysis rather than in ontology or metaphysics."--BOOK JACKET.
