Scalar Implicature and Local Pragmatics
The Gricean theory of conversational implicature has always been plagued by data suggesting that what would seem to be conversational inferences may occur within the scope of operators like believe, for example; which for bona fide implicatures should be an impossibility. Concentrating my attention on scalar implicatures, I argue that, for the most part, such observations can be accounted for w...
متن کاملConversational Implicature and Lexical Pragmatics
Lexical Pragmatics is a research field that tries to give a systematic and explanatory account of a number of pragmatic phenomena that are connected with the semantic underspecification of lexical items.

Optimality Theoretic Pragmatics and the Explicature/Implicature Distinction
Optimality Theoretic Pragmatics is a (partly) formalized theory that conforms to a dynamic neo-Gricean approach. It assumes one phase of the updating process that involves the application of the so-called Qand I/Rprinciples. Critics of the theory have maintained that such an approach does not discriminate between processes where apparent conversational implicatures enter into propositional cont...
