This volume contains essays that explore explicit and implicit
communication through linguistic research. Taking as a framework
Paul Grice's theories on "what is said," the contributors explore a
number of areas, including: the boundary between semantics and
pragmatics; the concept of implicit communication; the idea of the
logical form of our assertions; the notion of conventional meaning;
the phenomenon of "deixis," which refers to when an utterance
require context in order to be understood fully; the treatment of
definite descriptions; and the different kinds of pragmatic
processes.
