This handbook is the first to explore the growing field of
experimental semantics and pragmatics. In the past 20 years,
experimental data has become a major source of evidence for
building theories of language meaning and use, encompassing a wide
range of topics and methods. Following an introduction from the
editors, the chapters in this volume offer an up-to-date account of
research in the field spanning 31 different topics, including
scalar implicatures, presuppositions, counterfactuals,
quantification, metaphor, prosody, and politeness, as well as
exploring how and why a particular experimental method is suitable
for addressing a given theoretical debate. The volume's
forward-looking approach also seeks to actively identify questions
and methods that could be fruitfully combined in future
experimental research. Written in a clear and accessible style,
this handbook will appeal to students and scholars from advanced
undergraduate level upwards in a range of fields, including
semantics and pragmatics, philosophy of language,
psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, cognitive science,
and neuroscience.
