ReviewsMaria Pober shows how to describe, analyze and interpret the complex relationships of the designation Mensch and semantically related gender terms such as Person, Wesen, Leute, Frau, and Mann. She sheds profound light not only on the relationship between genus and sexus, but also on the positions of these terms in the lexicon. This excellent account is sure to become a standard work.
