ABSTRACT
Thus far, we have been concerned primarily with the represeiitation of referents by means of symbolic vehicles formed in verbal (phonic) media. Our major focus in Part V is, in contradistinction, on the representation of contents through nonverbal, nonphonic mediation. Since the question may arise concerning the relevance of nonverbal representation to the understanding of linguistic representation, it may be worthwhile—before we sketch the kinds of problems encompased in this Part—to comment, at least in a cursory way, on the value of studies piploying nonphonic media.
