Can linguistic pragmatics be developed without the need to
formulate rules, criteria or maxims? The author argues that rules
as they have been conceived of within pragmatics, particularly
speech act theory, are limiting and out of step with the linguistic
science of recent decades. Using a hermeneutic approach to
pragmatics, this book seeks to bring pragmatics closer to the
cognitive paradigm that has transformed the other branches of the
linguistic and communication sciences, with the help of
developments in certain neighbouring disciplines such as
philosophy, sociology and narratology. The elements that are opened
up to pragmatics in this approach include some new conceptions of
intentionality, intertextuality, communicative action and literary
authorship, as well as the subjectivity of interpretation, which by
its very nature ceaselessly transforms all forms of communication
in its historical spiral.
