Pragmatics is the study of human communication: the choices
speakers make to express their intended meaning and the kinds of
inferences that hearers draw from an utterance in the context of
its use. This Handbook surveys pragmatics from different
perspectives, presenting the main theories in pragmatic research,
incorporating seminal research as well as cutting-edge solutions.
It addresses questions of rational and empirical research methods,
what counts as an adequate and successful pragmatic theory, and how
to go about answering problems raised in pragmatic theory. In the
fast-developing field of pragmatics, this Handbook fills the gap in
the market for a one-stop resource to the wide scope of today's
research and the intricacy of the many theoretical debates. It is
an authoritative guide for graduate students and researchers with
its focus on the areas and theories that will mark progress in
pragmatic research in the future.
