Abstract:

Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced book.

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.
