9780080436357: The Pragmatics of Propositional Attitude Reports

Synopsis

This volume, the fourth in Elsevier's new CRiSPI series, is a collection of nine papers dealing with the topic of reporting on beliefs and other attitudes, and in particular with the issue of the semantics-pragmatics boundary dispute which is the core topic of the current research in the field. Written by highly-regarded philosophers of language and linguists working on theoretical semantics and pragmatics, it brings together works in the mainstream tradition of logical form and the contextualism–anticontextualism debate and the research on the role of intentions, conventions, goals, plans and cultural stereotypes in attitude ascriptions. The editor's introductory chapter gives a valuable overview of the work, discussing the importance of all these aspects of propositional attitude research and stressing their compatibility and interdependence.

Revue de presse

Edward Garrett
the first in which the author gives due importance to the contribution of not only Western but also non-Western thinkers.
Linguist List
...this book will become a classic in the theory of propositional attitudes and pragmatics, as it discusses a number of problems of theoretical interest and proposes a number of solutions which must be taken into serious account....This book deserves great praise and we are indebted greatly to K. Jaszczolt for having undertaken the enterprise of soliciting these papers.
