Fifteen specially written papers examine the ways in which the
content of what we say is dependent on the context in which we say
it. At the centre of the current debate on this subject is Cappelen
and Lepore's claim that context-sensitivity in language is best
captured by a combination of semantic minimalism and speech act
pluralism. Using this theory as their starting point, the
contributors to this volume develop a variety of different views
about the role of context in communication, and reveal its
wide-ranging implications for all issues in the philosophy of
language and linguistics.
