Overview
- Contributes highly original ideas on the problem of breaking Grice's circle, a topic that underlies the whole philosophy of language and linguistics
- Offers a clear illustration of the problem, both at a theoretical level and in relation to distinct topics, such as explicatures and presuppositions applied to indirect reports
- Presents an extraordinarily rich overview of the state of the art in the debate concerning the divide between semantics and pragmatics
- Reviews an excitingly broad range of linguistic phenomena and provides detailed accounts of existing theoretical approaches
Part of the book series: Perspectives in Pragmatics, Philosophy & Psychology (PEPRPHPS, volume 22)
