All three touch on central points in Roger Sell's literary-pragmatic, communicational and mediating view of literature. When presenting them I shall speculate on what they are based on, why they are so prevalent, and how they are related and sometimes co-occur. Finally, I try to show that these widespread fallacies also have thwarted any efforts to construct a tenable pragmatics of literary interpretation.Pragmatics & beyond ;190.English literatureHistory and criticismLiteratureHistory and criticismTheory, etcLiteraturePhilosophyEnglish literatureHistory and criticism.LiteratureHistory and criticismTheory, etc.LiteraturePhilosophy.820.9Finch Jason1612706Sell Roger D454878MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824991203321Humane readings3941656UNINA
