Description

"In Pragmatics, the study of meaning derived from context, Jean Stilwell Peccei offers a practical introduction to this core area of linguistics."--BOOK JACKET. "Pragmatics encourages the reader to look at different levels of meaning within sentences; provides a basic understanding of key pragmatic concepts such as sentence and utterance, entailment, presupposition, implicature and direct and indirect speech acts; introduces two highly influential approaches to pragmatics: the co-operative principle and speech act theory; and provides a range of activities, discussion questions, sample answers and further reading."--BOOK JACKET.
