In this book Stephen C. Levinson explains some general processes that underlie presumptions in communication. This is the first extended discussion of preferred interpretation in language understanding, integrating much of the best research in linguistic pragmatics from the last two decades. Levinson outlines a theory of presumptive meanings, or preferred interpretations, governing the use of language, building on the idea of implicature developed by the philosopher H.P. Grice. Some of the indirect information carried by speech is presumed by default because it is carried by general principles, rather than inferred from specific assumptions about intention and context. Levinson examines this class of general pragmatic inferences in detail, showing how they apply to a wide range of linguistic constructions. This approach has radical consequences for how we think about language and communication. 001387409 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001387409 650_0 $$aSemantics. 001387409 650_0 $$aFormal languages$$xSemantics. 001387409 650_0 $$aImplication (Logic) 001387409 650_0 $$aPragmatics. 001387409 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general. 001387409 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001387409 852__ $$bebk 001387409 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/5526.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001387409 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001387409 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1387409$$pGLOBAL_SET 001387409 980__ $$aBIB 001387409 980__ $$aEBOOK 001387409 982__ $$aEbook 001387409 983__ $$aOnline
