Abstract:

Relevance Theory provides an original theoretical framework to capture the
complex nature and intricacies of the processes underlying ostensive
communication. The model has been in constant development for the last 30
years, and this study attempts to contribute to it by challenging free
enrichment as an important explicature-generation procedure. The mechanisms
underlying the recovery of explicitly and implicitly communicated meanings are
explored in this book. They show that by approaching communication as a
creative process, Relevance Theory offers a coherent explanation not only of
communication in which what is conveyed is relatively straightforward and easy
to identify, but also of cases in which what is communicated is partly precise
and partly vague.
