Abstract

This paper discusses one intriguing but complicated issue about identity in tautological constructions in Chinese political discourse. We recognized that, though Russell’s description theory is helpful to exploit the logical mechanism underlying the grammatical forms, it still has the difficulties in describing the relationship between logic and language experience. That’s why we talked about Grice’s theoretical contributions. And finally, we find an ideal theory to describe the relationship between them.
