Abstract:

This accessible and engaging text introduces the field of pragmatics, the study 
of the relationship between linguistic meaning and context. Assuming no prior 
knowledge, Siobhan Chapman surveys the development of pragmatics from the 
very beginning to the present day, and engages with many of the most recent 
debates in the field, including topics such as experimental pragmatics and 
(im)politeness theory.
 
This highly-readable text focuses on core theoretical pragmatics, but also 
considers how pragmatics has been applied to the study of various aspects of 
language in use, such as literature, language acquisition and clinical linguistics. 
Each chapter concludes with useful suggestions for further reading, including 
both primary and secondary sources. Comprehensive and up-to-date, 
Pragmatics goes beyond an introduction, encouraging readers at all levels to 
understand and engage with the very latest issues and ideas.
