This is a collection of papers that resulted from the Third
International Conference on Contrastive Semantics and Pragmatics
that was held at Shanghai International Studies University in
September 2005. Their common focus lies in aspects of the
contrastive semantics and pragmatics in a wide variety of
languages. These aspects include several themes that arise from
Gricean and neo-Gricean considerations of contrastive pragmatics;
from cognitive semantics and pragmatics, including metaphor and
issues that relate to the logical structure of quantification,
modality and demonstration; and from contrastive lexical,
constructional and discourse semantics. The languages discussed
include Afrikaans, Amele, Czech, English, Finnish, French, German,
Gokana, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Norwegian, Polish, Russian,
Spanish, Thai, Yakut and Zulu.
