This book criticizes the methodology of the recent semantics-pragmatics debate in the theory of language and proposes an alternative. It applies this methodology to argue for a traditional view against a group of “contextualists†and “pragmatistsâ€, including Sperber and Wilson, Bach, Carston, Recanati, Neale, and many others.
