The Semantics-Pragmatics Boundary in Philosophy

by Robert J. Stainton (Editor), Maite Ezcurdia (Editor)

The boundary between semantics and pragmatics has been important since the early twentieth century, but in the last twenty-five years it has become the central issue in the philosophy of language. This anthology collects classic philosophical papers on the topic, along with recent key contributions. It stresses not only the nature of the boundary, but also its importance for philosophy generally.
