Kurzbeschreibung
Those aspects of language use that are crucial to an understanding of language as a system, and especially to an understanding of meaning, are the acknowledged concern of linguistic pragmatics. Yet until now much of the work in this field has not been easily accessible to the student, and was often written at an intimidating level of technicality. In this textbook, however, Dr Levinson has provided a lucid and integrative analysis of the central topics in pragmatics - deixis, implicature, presupposition, speech acts, and conversational structure. A central concern of the book is the relation between pragmatics and semantics, and Dr Levinson shows clearly how a pragmatic approach can resolve some of the problems semantics have been confronting and simplifying semantic analyses. The complexity of these issues is not disguised, but the exposition is always clear and supported by helpful exemplification. The detailed analyses of selected topics give the student a clear view of the empirical rigour demanded by the study of linguistic pragmatics, but Dr Levinson never loses sight of the rich diversity of the subject. An introduction and conclusion relate pragmatics to other fields in linguistics and other disciplines concerned with language usage - psychology, philosophy, anthropology and literature. Many students in these disciplines, as well as students of linguistics, will find this a valuable textbook.

Format:Taschenbuch
I would highly recommend this very readable introduction to the pragmatic revolution in linguistics. The book is organized incredibly well with each chapter dealing with a curiously inexplicable lingusitic phenomenon that just happens to have a clean, pragmatic answer. Levinson weaves linguistic theory and philosophy of language well with a very readable format and style. I found it especially useful as a primer for recent philosophy of language.
Format:Taschenbuch
Students of linguistics, when they begin their university life, face a seemingly impenetrable chaos of different approaches and schools, sub-disciplines and objects of study. What is desperately needed then, are textbooks providing first insights into the various problems as well as literature that will help to master those fields that do not become a major interest, but remain part of the course requirements. The present volume is that book in Pragmatics. In seven clearly structured chapters, Levinson provides a step-by-step overview, introducing the reader to all relevant schools of thought and all the important issues. The author manages quite well not to confuse beginners and at the same time not to bore more advanced readers. Additionally, the logical arrangement of topics makes the book a useful volume of reference for exams and papers. A large bibliography, featuring the classics of the discipline as well as taking into account more recent sources, is the icing on this delicious cake.

Difficult and dated book; for serious linguists only
13. Januar 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
I used this book in a Semantics/Pragmatics graduate class at my university. It was a very difficult read, which makes sense, since Pragmatics is a very complex subject. The field is ill-defined and it's always hard to tell whether a topic is better thought of as a Semantics topic or a Pragmatics topic. The book itself spends a chapter discussing how to define this field, whether it is really part of linguistics, and how it relates to Semantics. It also spends much time on the topic of Harvey Sacks' conversation analysis (my professor's specialty), relating it to Searle's speech act theory, and other non-traditional approaches to linguistic meaning. In this way, the book borrows much from philosophy of language, sociolinguistics, and other (loosely?) related areas of linguistics.
If you are a serious linguist who is interested in meaning outside of predicate logic, this is the book for you. For anyone looking for an easy introduction to field, look elsewhere.

Not Your First Choice in Pragmatics
22. Juni 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
For the reader with no time to lose, I'll start right away by telling you which book on Pragmatics you ought to get if you want a good introduction to it: "Pragmatics" by George Yule, because it is much more concise, to the point, covers a lot of ground quickly, deals with the essential.
Now, Levinson's book is a book I read twice, and from which I never retain anything. The first time I read it - entirely - I could not mention anything I had read in there. I thought I was simply a bad reader, but after having studied pragmatics for a long time, I realised that the book was simply not well written. It goes into complicated details too fast, before the reader has any real grasp on the matter, and gets lost in discussions that readers usually aren't able to understand, nor care for.
Typically, I'd say that Levinson's book is an "introduction" written by someone who knows not what it is like to know nothing about pragmatics. And even when you know of the subject, you still find his book rather difficult to follow.
I strongly urge you to consider George Yule's book on pragmatics rather than this one.
