Abstract:

Together with the first volume “Inquiries in philosophical pragmatics:
Theoretical developments,” this book collects contributions that represent the
state of the art on the interconnection between pragmatics and philosophy.
While the first volume presents the philosophical dimension of pragmatics,
showing the path from theoretical advances to practical uses and approaches,
this second volume offers a specular view on this discipline. Instead of
adopting the top-down view of the first volume, this collection of eleven
chapters starts from the analysis of linguistic data – which include texts and
discourses in different languages, different types of dialogues, different
types of interactions, and different modes for expressing meaning – looking
for the regularities that govern our production and processing. The chapters
are ordered according to their relationship with the themes and methods that
define the field of pragmatics. The more explored and classical linguistic
issues such as prototype-based generalizations, scalar implicatures, and
temporal ordering, lead gradually to the more recent and debated topic of
slurs and pejorative language, and finally to the interdisciplinary and more
pioneering works addressing specific context of language use, such as
marketplace interactions, courtroom speeches, schizophrenic discourse,
literary texts for children, and multimedia communication.
