Synopsis: This book contains a comprehensive view of pragmalinguistic studies and their recent ramifications, boasting some of the most advanced recent research in pragmatics. Organised into three sections—pragmalinguistics, social pragmatics, and cognitive-inferential pragmatics, respectively—the chapters enable an understanding of the possible applications of linguistic and philosophical theories in practical fields. Covering topics such as polysemy across languages and lexical externalism, the role of literal meaning in the construction of metaphorical meaning, the pragmatics of truth, the roles of reflexivity in meaning negotiation, argumentation and discourse, the pragmatics of taboo, linguistic and cognitive aspects of formation of implicates, and reflections on neuropragmatics and clinical pragmatics in Autism Spectrum Disorder and Schizophrenia—to name but a few exciting areas of exploration—this book is of interest to scholars and postgraduate students in the fields of semantics, pragmatics and philosophy of language, cognitive science, and other areas of linguistics.
