This volume brings together distinguished scholars from all over
the world to present an authoritative, thorough, and yet accessible
state-of-the-art survey of current issues in pragmatics. Following
an introduction by the editor, the volume is divided into five
thematic parts. Chapters in Part I are concerned with schools of
thought, foundations, and theories, while Part II deals with
central topics in pragmatics, including implicature,
presupposition, speech acts, deixis, reference, and context. In
Part III, the focus is on cognitively-oriented pragmatics, covering
topics such as computational, experimental, and neuropragmatics.
Part IV takes a look at socially and culturally-oriented pragmatics
such as politeness/impoliteness studies, cross- and intercultural,
and interlanguage pragmatics. Finally, the chapters in Part V
explore the interfaces of pragmatics with semantics, grammar,
morphology, the lexicon, prosody, language change, and information
structure. The Oxford Handbook of Pragmatics will be an
indispensable reference for scholars and students of pragmatics of
all theoretical stripes. It will also be a valuable resource for
linguists in other fields, including philosophy of language,
semantics, morphosyntax, prosody, psycholinguistics, and
sociolinguistics, and for researchers and students in the fields of
cognitive science, artificial intelligence, computer science,
anthropology, and sociology.
