Abstract:

This volume is one of the first books to present a comprehensive view of
lexical pragmatics, describing its origins, assumptions, scope, methodology
and the various approaches to it, focusing specifically on the approach
offered by relevance theory. In addition to theoretical considerations, the
book discusses particular linguistic expressions and pragmatic phenomena,
showing how the relevance-theoretic tools may be used to explore pragmatically
motivated changes to lexically encoded meanings. The most recent developments
are discussed and questions are asked to indicate directions for further
research within this rapidly developing field.
