Annotation

The first of six volumes in this anthology of the study of language use reprints classic articles (by Morris, Carnap, Bar-Hillel and Martin) on the 'dawn' of pragmatics, and on the 'delineation' of the field of pragmatics (with papers by Stalnaker, Haberland, Mey, Kasher, Davis, Allwood and Récanati), with special reference to semantics.
