Conclusion; Translated quotations; Notes; References; Index; The series Studies in the History of the Language SciencesThe roots of pragmatics reach back to Antiquity, especially to rhetoric as one of the three liberal arts. However, until the end of the 18th century proto-pragmatic insights tended to be consigned to the pragmatic, that is rhetoric, wastepaper basket and thus excluded from serious philosophical consideration.It can be said that pragmatics was conceived between 1780 and 1830 in Britain, but also in Germany and in France in post-Lockian and post-Kantian philosophies of language. These early 'conceptions' of pragmatics are described in the first part of the book.The second part of theStudies in the History of the Language SciencesLanguage and languages -- Philosophy -- HistoryPragmatics -- HistoryPragmaticsHistoryLanguage and languagesPhilosophyHistoryPhilology & LinguisticsHILCCLanguages & LiteraturesHILCCLanguage and languages -- Philosophy -- History.Pragmatics -- History.PragmaticsHistoryLanguage and languagesPhilosophyHistoryPhilology & LinguisticsLanguages & Literatures306.44Nerlich Brigitte157018Clarke David D207960AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910782441403321Language, action, and context629629UNINA
