This collection of articles is the second in the series on work carried out in the framework of the Meaning-Text Theory (MTT). It addresses several topics in MTT and related issues, such as the problem of semantics, semantic representation, and the relation of semantics to surface in MTT. Contributors discuss the following issues: the problem of a rigorous specification of semantic networks as a means for meaning representation; the use of semantemes in the Semantic Structure for describing causality; causative meanings; semantico-communicative oppositions between two specific pairs of causative phrases; and how the meaning of sentence elements combine to the meaning of the sentence.
