Description
Book SynopsisIn everyday talk about language, we distinguish between what someone said and what they implied, or otherwise conveyed, a distinction carried into theorising about language and communication. Nothing is Said argues that it is a mistake to import the notion of saying into our models of basic linguistic communication.
Trade ReviewThe book is lively and engaging, and contains lots of penetrating detailed discussions of core, significant issues. It is an important contribution to the Semantics/Pragmatics literature. * Arthur Sullivan, Journal of Pragmatics *
