David Braine
In rewriting the philosophy of grammar, Braine restores the dynamic conception of language, reuniting structure and communicative function. Grammar, typically through the verb, gives the sentence its ‘saying’ function, the verb being what brings the sentence to life, giving the sentence’s other elements their role and force.
