| Abstract | "This book provides a fresh perspective on cognitive pragmatics, in close dialogue with Relevance Theory but argues for a different framework. In contrast with Fodorian assumptions of modularity and automaticity, the book provides an account of inferences based on associative activation and conscious attention. This allows for a unitary account of comprehension and mindreading, in line with the Gricean original project. ... Mouton Series in Pragmatics (MSP) is a timely response to the growing demand for innovative and authoritative monographs and edited volumes from all angles of pragmatics. Recent theoretical work on the semantics/pragmatics interface, applications of evolutionary biology to the study of language, and empirical work within cognitive and developmental psychology and intercultural communication has directed attention to issues that warrant reexamination, as well as revision of some of the central tenets and claims of the field of pragmatics."-- Back cover. |
