Description

Explore the complexities of English grammar with The Semantics and Pragmatics of Preposing, part of the Routledge Library Editions: Semantics and Semiology. This scholarly work examines pragmatic competence through the lens of preposing constructions in English. By focusing on specific grammatical categories, the author addresses gaps in previous research to identify significant pragmatic generalizations. The text argues that the distinction between different preposing types relies on the semantic and pragmatic properties of the constituent's referent. This book provides a comprehensive review of existing literature before presenting a new pragmatic theory. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in how discourse functions and linguistic structures work together in English communication.
