Description

Explore the complex world of untruthfulness in this academic study from De Gruyter Mouton. This book provides new perspectives on how irony, deception, and humour function within linguistic and philosophical studies. While these topics are often studied separately, this work brings them together to examine how they represent overt or covert untruthfulness. Using a neo-Gricean framework, the text bridges the gap between language philosophy and pragmatics. To help readers grasp these difficult concepts, the author uses scripted interactions taken from the television series House. These examples make the theoretical discussions easier to follow and help illustrate the complexities of human communication. This volume is part of the Mouton Series in Pragmatics (MSP, 21), making it an important resource for students and researchers interested in the mechanics of language and truth.
