Influence -- References -- Index -- The series Handbook of Pragmatics Highlights.The ten volumes of Handbook of Pragmatics Highlights focus on the most salient topics in the field of pragmatics, thus dividing its wide interdisciplinary spectrum in a transparent and manageable way. While the other volumes select specific cognitive, grammatical, social, cultural, variational, interactional, or discursive angles, this 10th volume focuses on the interface between pragmatics and philosophy and reviews the philosophical background from which pragmatics has taken inspiration and with which it is constantly confronted. It provides the reader with information about authors relevant to the development of pragmatics, trends or areas in philosophy that are relevant for the definition of the main concepts in pragmatics or the characterization of its cultural context, the neighbouring field of semantics (with particular respect to truth-conditional semantics and some main branches of formal semantics), and recent philosophical debates that involve pragmatic notions such as indexicality and context. While most of the references are to the analytic philosophical field, also perspectives in so-called continental philosophy are taken into account. The introductory chapter outlines some unifying routes of reflection as regards meaning, speech as action, and self and mind, and suggests some connections between doing pragmatics and doing philosophy.Handbook of pragmatics highlights ;v. 10.PragmaticsLinguisticsPhilosophyPragmatics.LinguisticsPhilosophy.302.44Sbisà Marina143969Östman Jan-Ola436528Verschueren Jef158632MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812265503321Philosophical perspectives for pragmatics4114843UNINA
