Description
Raymond Williams traces the history of 155 words in the English language, demonstrating how their meanigns have gradually been altered or how they acquired new or additional meanings over the passage of time. More than this, Williams describes the complex interaction between the changed meanings of words, how these changes affect people's concepts and how people's concepts are once again changed by the changes.
