ABOUT THIS SAMPLER

This modest attempt presents a limited, but we hope representative, collection of articles, lessons, exercises, and general information dealing with the inter-relationships of language and human behavior ... in other words, the domain of what we call general semantics.

Regardless of your area or level of specialty, we hope you'll find something here to justify the time you spend browsing. Not everyone will appreciate everything - hence, this sampler. We hope you will browse what you please, when you please.

You'll find in this General Semantics Sampler ...

  • introductory and overview descriptions and explanations
  • practical exercises and examples for both classroom and personal application
  • full-length academic articles that address theoretical and epistemological underpinnings and implications of the discipline
  • information about Alfred Korzybski, formulator of GS
  • a compendium of resources including a bibliography and links to other online sites
  • sixteen "Reflective Perspectives" that may help you view the daily and the mundane from different perspectives

The world we have created today as a result of our thinking thus far has problems which cannot be solved by thinking the way we thought when we created them.

Albert Einstein

If your language is confused, your intellect, if not your whole character, will almost certainly correspond.

Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch
