Communicative Pragmatism

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the principles governing communicative conventions, Nicholas Rescher delves into the pragmatic aspects of language use. He examines explanatory and expository language across diverse contexts, from factual to fictional and literary. Central to his exploration is the concept of pragmatic conventionality, which he argues is essential for understanding the rules that underpin effective communication. By situating these conventions within the broader context of human interaction, Rescher provides insights into the mechanics of communication in various practices.
