The first part surveys general linguistic work on evidentials, presents speech-act theory and examines Grice’s theory of meaning and communication with emphasis on three main issues: for linguistically encoded evidentials, are they truth-conditional or non-truth-conditional, and do they contribute to explicit or implicit communication? For pragmatically inferred evidentials, is there a pragmatic framework in which they can be adequately accounted for? The second part examines those assumptions of Relevance theory that bear on the study of evidentials, offers an account of pragmatically inferred evidentials and introduces three distinctions relevant to the issues discussed in this book: between explicit and implicit communication, truth-conditional and non-truth-conditional meaning, and conceptual and procedural meaning. These distinctions are applied to a variety of linguistically encoded evidentials, including sentence adverbials, parenthetical constructions and hearsay particles. This book offers convincing evidence that not all evidentials behave similarly with respect to the above distinctions and offers an explanation for why this is so. 04 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475/pbns.86.png 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_jpg/9789027251053.jpg 04 03 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/475_tif/9789027251053.tif 06 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_front/pbns.86.hb.png 07 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/125/pbns.86.png 25 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/1200_back/pbns.86.hb.png 27 09 01 https://benjamins.com/covers/3d_web/pbns.86.hb.png 10 01 JB code pbns.86.01ack xi xii 2 Miscellaneous 1 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Acknowledgements</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.02int 1 16 16 Article 2 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Introduction</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.03spe 17 36 20 Article 3 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Speech-act theory</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.04gri 37 57 21 Article 4 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Grice and communication</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.05rel 59 95 37 Article 5 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Relevance Theory</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.06sen 97 118 22 Article 6 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Sentence adverbials</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.07par 119 159 41 Article 7 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Parentheticals</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.08evi 161 194 34 Article 8 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Evidential particles</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.09con 195 202 8 Article 9 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Conclusions</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.10not 203 206 4 Miscellaneous 10 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Notes</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.11bib 207 216 10 Miscellaneous 11 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Bibliography</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.12nam 217 219 3 Miscellaneous 12 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Name Index</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.86.13sub 221 225 5 Miscellaneous 13 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Subject Index</TitleText> 02 JBENJAMINS John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam/Philadelphia NL 04 20011231 2001 John Benjamins 02 WORLD 13 15 9789027251053 01 JB 3 John Benjamins e-Platform 03 jbe-platform.com 09 WORLD 21 01 00 105.00 EUR R 01 00 88.00 GBP Z 01 gen 00 158.00 USD S 1695 03 01 01 JB John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 JB code P&bns 86 Hb 15 9789027251053 13 2001035507 BB 01 P&bns 02 0922-842X Pragmatics & Beyond New Series 86 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Evidentials and Relevance</TitleText> 01 pbns.86 01 https://benjamins.com 02 https://benjamins.com/catalog/pbns.86 1 A01 Elly Ifantidou Ifantidou, Elly Elly Ifantidou Athens University of Economics & Business 01 eng 240 xii 225 LAN009000 v.2006 CF 2 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.PRAG Pragmatics 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.SEMAN Semantics 06 01 This book uses Sperber and Wilson’s Relevance Theory to show how evidential expressions can be analysed in a unified semantic/pragmatic framework.
