Synopsis

Pragmatic Syntax is a research program deriving the explanation of the syntactic form of utterances from underlying principles of speech action. This enables it to focus on linguistic phenomena necessarily phased out in non-pragmatic approaches. Among these are specific word order regularities, elliptic sentences, foregrounding in sentences, and the use of phraseological forms. The articles in the volume approaching the connection between language use and the syntactic form of utterances from various perspectives, but are all informed by a joint commitment to the idea of using pragmatics to get to the bottom of syntax.
