An accessible and thorough introduction to implicatures, a key
topic in all frameworks of pragmatics. Starting with a definition
of the various types of implicatures in Gricean, neo-Gricean and
post-Gricean pragmatics, the book covers many important questions
for current pragmatic theories, namely: the distinction between
explicit and implicit forms of pragmatic enrichment, the criteria
for drawing a line between semantic and pragmatic meaning, the
relations between the structure of language (syntax) and its use
(pragmatics), the social and cognitive factors underlying the use
of implicatures by native speakers, and the factors influencing
their acquisition for children and second language learners.
Written in non-technical language, Implicatures will appeal to
students and teachers in linguistics, applied linguistics,
psychology and sociology, who are interested in how language is
used for communication, and how children and learners develop
pragmatic skills.
