Ethics and Language is a 1944 book by C. L. Stevenson which was influential in furthering the metaethical view of emotivism first espoused by A. J. Ayer.[1][2] Yale University, where Stevenson lectured, did not approve of the contents of the book, as a result his lecture position was not renewed.[3]
