Contents:
Frontmatter -- Contents -- Introduction -- I. Pragmatics and philosophy -- 2. Back to negative particulars: A truth-conditional pragmatic account -- 3. Colour adjectives, compositionality, and true utterances -- 4. Talk about the future -- 5. Illocutionary effects, presupposition, and implicature -- II. Pragmatics and cognition -- 6. Is implicit communication a way to escape epistemic vigilance? -- 7. The structure of utterance meaning: how did it come about? -- 8. The role of Theory of Mind, grammatical competence and metapragmatic awareness in irony comprehension -- III. Pragmatics and linguistic analysis -- 9. Theoretical and methodological issues in the research into implicit arguments in Hungarian -- 10. The Pragmatics of ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ -- 11. Do not say that for which you lack adequate evidence: On the interpretation of future tense in Modern Greek -- 12. Redundancy effects in discourse: On the modal particle-combinations ‘halt eben’ and ‘eben halt’ in German -- IV. Conversation analysis -- 13. The pragmatics of intelligible pronunciation: Preemptive and reactive segmental repair in English as a lingua franca interactions in Japan -- 14. The interactional functions of four repair operations in Hungarian -- Index
Summary: All of the papers included in this volume offer some novel and/or updated perspective on issues of central importance in pragmatics, suggesting original ways in which research in the particular areas they adhere to could advance. Apart from the obvious aim of motivating further discussion on the topics it touches on, a central objective of this volume is to underline that research in pragmatics can and does substantially inform research in numerous other fields of enquiry, namely philosophy, cognitive science, linguistics and conversation analysis, revealing in this way the truly interdisciplinary nature of pragmatics theorizing. In this respect, and given that most of the contributions in this volume are from leading scholars in their respective fields, it is clearly expected that the ideas put forth in this volume will have a profound and long-lasting impact for future research in the area.
