"Linguistic semantics is a relatively young discipline. Only half a century ago, ideas about the structure of the semantic component of grammar were still sketchy and programmatic. Around 1970, developments outside linguistics instigated a dramatic change. New analytic tools from logic and the philosophy of language paved the way to a systematic account of meaning in language in terms of reference and truth conditions. In the following decades, linguists adapted and refined these methods to arrive at a much clearer picture of the semantic component and its interfaces, thereby passing from a handful of formalization strategies adapted from formal logic to a wide range of semantic phenomena observed across the languages of the world. Today semantic theory has attained a level of maturity that makes it mandatory for any linguist to be acquainted with its main methods and results. It is our hope that the Wiley Blackwell Companion to Semantics will become one of the primary sources for those seeking such an acquaintance"--

The Current Research in the Semantic / Pragmatics Interface series has carved out a new and vibrant area of research. This volume offers the reader a state-of-the-art record of new and established research in this area. Von Heusinger and Turner's careful selection of topics and contributors ensures that each chapter integrates semantic and pragmatic facts into a single theory, that each finds an adequate division of theoretical labour and that each attempts to design and corroborate an elegant account of meaning and use that would be compatible with other aspects of human behaviour. Importantly, each paper in the volume focuses on linguistic detail, not merely abstract discussions of a theoretical nature. Thus each paper makes extensive reference to the semantic and pragmatic facts of English and also other languages. This reference gives each of the proposed analyses a more adequate empirical edge and a sharper theoretical focus. This book is a must for all scholars and students interested in the new and vibrant discipline of semantics-pragmatics and to anyone who is fascinated by the prospect of working beyond the traditional disciplinary boundaries of linguistics and the philosophy of language. The chapters in this volume originate from a workshop at the Linguistic Society of America Summer Institute, held at Michigan State University.

This collective volume contains carefully selected papers presented at the international semiotics conference 'Semiotique et pragmatique' that took place in Perpignan on 17 to 19 November, 1983. The volume starts of with four debate papers by Searle, Apel, Greimas and Landowski, and is followed then by the main section which is subdivided by a historical, a theoretical and a practical section.
