Anaphora
Table of contents
The objective of this contribution is to present, after a very short historical survey, the approaches to anaphora which can be related to two of the dominant frameworks in current pragmatics, the neo-Gricean theory and the theory of relevance. After discussing these two approaches and related suggestions, a pragma-semantic approach will be introduced, which combines a more traditional analysis of the semantic value of the anaphoric expressions with the pragmatic inferences necessary to analyse their use in discourse.
