This textbook provides an introduction to pragmatics from the point of view of Sperber and Wilsona s Relevance Theory. The first part lays down the foundations of a relevance theoretic approach to utterance understanding, which is then applied to the analysis of a range of phenomena which are central to pragmatics.

Review:

"A clearly written textbook. Punctuated with straightforward exercises and a useful recommended reading list." Journal of Pragmatics

Store Description

Haven for a miscellany of Dublin characters, and heavy on Philosophy, Literature, Modern Music, and Art, this small, hidden yet busy bookshop is tentatively and slowly lauching its online existence. Do bear with us, gentle Sir or Madam.
