Causality and Connectives: From Grice to relevance (Pragmatics & Beyond New Series)

Causality and Connectives: From Grice to relevance (Pragmatics & Beyond New Series)

The book explores finely-grained distinctions in causal meaning, mostly from a relevance-theoretic perspective. To increase the challenge of this double task, i.e. a thorough as well as satisfactory account of cause and a detailed assessment of the theoretical model employed to this end, the current study involves an investigation carried out by way of contrasting the prototypical causal exponents of Modern Greek subordination, i.e. epeiδi and γiati. In addition, this objective is achieved in the methodological framework of contrasting a range of contextual applications of the two connectives against their translated versions in English, realizable by means of because.

English Colour Terms

English Colour TermsThis work is a contextual study of a collection of English colour terms. Here contextual is used loosely in the sense that the colour terms are not analysed in
isolation but in conjunction with other linguistic units. The overall aim of the study is to describe and analyse a number of aspects of the semantics of English colour terms within the framework of cognitive linguistics. The material on which this work is based is an extensive language corpus – the Bank of English. In other words this book contains a lot of information about English color terms and collocation and colligation of them, semantics and so on. alt
